On last Thursday afternoon
the usual families held their annual
pic nic in Mathers' grove below
Clear Creek ; the Loudens, Woodburns, Wilsons, Wylies, Arnotts
and Blairs and Jtev. JUyons were the families renresented. Prof.
McMillan and wite, ot Monotonia,
and Sam. Curry and wife were
among the number. In carriages
and buggies the crowd went down
the west pike four miles south, to
the grounds where they have pic
nieked for several successive years, and old and young alike enjoyed th romn in the woods for the stf-
ternoon. A history of their former
picnics was read by Miss Delia Wvlie. and a letter to the crowd
from W. P. McNary who had been
v!rh thpm in these excursions in
all the previous years. A good! many reminiscences and pleasant ; times wore recalled by these papers. At lunch, some of the outer pickets captured a stray "old settler," in the person of Henry Dillroan and brought him into camp, and made him take a little of their hard tack. The games, hatball, horseshoes.croonet. fox and ceese, and the ramble
to the' railroad bridge were indulged in as usual. The drive down

would not pay to buy other bonds
at their present price, hut decided
to reduce their bond deposit to the
lowest limit allowed one-third otj
