way at a pretty good rate, old Harry got pretty well warmed up but I got them in a stable at the hotel so I guess it didn't hurt him any. We had a fine time up there in the old hall. I had about the best time I ever had and everyone else said the same. Carl Coleman and Pat brought another load up and there were several others from Dover up. Mr. & Mrs. {Rev?} Johnson were there and Mr Johnson had a high time. We stopped dancong soon after three but it was quite awhile before we got started for home. The return ride was a delightful one as the moon was well up and the air clear and frosty. By the time I got home the team put away and into bed it was about five o'clock. The orchestra paid me two dollars for taking them and it cost me one dollar and sixty cents. Harry said I needn't have paid the dollar to dance as teir driver alwas got in free but the proceeds were for patriotic purposess and I had such a whale of a time I didn't begrudge it. The hotel fellows soaked my fifty cents for puttng the team in and ten cents for checking the robes. The soldiers all wemnt to a dance in Port Ryerse to-night, they went in theree oadds and one load upset and the team got away axccording to reports coming home Hammy Innes was driving and it was the same team that took us to Simcoe last Saturday night. Very soft but cloudy all day.
