HARTFORD

The 16th concession  was the scene of an interesting time last Thursday evening at the home of Geo. Sloat. About 65 friends of Mr. and Mrs. A. Giles gathered to show their friendship to them and were loaded with many useful present for the newly married couple. It was a variety shower.

A splendid time was spent by the young people on the lawn, while some of the older ones stayed inside and visited. A number of speeches were made and lots of good advice given to Mr. and Mrs. Giles. After the presentation, Mrs. Giles responded in a neat speech, thanking all for their thoughtfulness and good wishes.
