in passing and the band played a
few selections for them.
Later the band and a few of
the gallant young men of the
party decided to go to the col-
lege dormitory and serenade the
fair occupants. After a few ex-
cellent pieces had been rendered,
Mayor Lusk was called upon and
addressed the crowd in that ap-
propriate gem on Southern wo-
manhood, and chivalric man-
hood. With so much inspiration,
such an appreciative audience,
be was at bis boat.
Calls for Attorney Ra*berry,
oft repeated, brought him out an
unwilling victim, but he made a
few appropriate remarks, that
were heartily cheered.
Dr. T. G. Whitten, financial
agent of the college, in a happy
vein, thanked the speakers and
the band.
At 7:30 the 150 guests assem-
bled at tbe town ball, where foot
artistically arranged tables, held
the feast Tbe hall was taste
fully decorated in southern ami-
lax, the snowy linen, tbe shining
glass, tbe brilliant lights, tbe
clean white Walls of tbe ball,
with lintels deoorated in ivy all
combined to make an inviting
banquet ball.
Dr. T. G Whitten, financial
agent of the Chappell Hill Fe-
male College, presided as toast
evening. |
Mr. A. W&ngein&nn, of Bren-
ham, was the next speaker. He
bhowed tbat tbe interests of
Brenham and Chappell Hill were
closely interwoven, and spoke
of the kindly relation existing
between the two towns, commer-
cially, socially politically and in
every way, complimented the
Chappell Hill people on their
culture, hospitality, etc.
Attorney j. P. Buchanan was
tbe next speaker and neatly
turned the toastmaster’s joke
about Chappell Hill swallowing
Brenham by showing that tbe
result would be different That
they could grow and expand,
working together harmoniously,
getting closer together by reason
of auch comminglings as we
were having on this occasion,
until they would meet, and
instead of swallowing each other,
would be united in a union at
which it would be eaid what God
has joined together let no man
put asunder. Mr. Buchanan
after a few remarks about the
previous speakers launched into
the subject of good roads, what
it required to get such a project
under way, how it could be done,
showed the necessity of good
officers, complimented tbe able
Representative of tbe oounty.
