A Pleasant Surprise!

A pleasant surprise was given to Mr. and Mrs. Henry Bellows living near Goodland last Saturday evening. The company numbered about fifty and they left as a token of friendship a pair of beautiful gold spectacles, for each of them . An elegant supper was served and at the same time of the serving of the supper the lovely tokens were presented to them. After supper all had a lively time. Mr. Bellows returned his heartfielt thanks in words few but touching and all dispersed at a suitable hour.
