FRIDAY EVENING, NOV. 20, 1891.
One of the most pleasant receptions of the season was given
by Mr. Thos. Burwell and Mose T. Burwell, assisted by Will J. Wilson, at the
elegant home of Messrs. Burwell on the corner of 3d and Church Street Friday eve. The
reception was given immediately after the contest, and although the weather was
stormy and kept some away that were expected from abroad, over fifty were in
attendance and one of the most enjoyable evenings was spent. Among the
honored guests from abroad were the Misses Earl, Mr. Earl; Mr. Rezner and Mr.
Mason, of Paxton, and the Misses Rodman, of Saybrook. The evening was
taken up with games and social conversation. An elegant banquet was
partaken of, supervised by Miss Nettie Burwell who has charge of the home while
Mr. and Mrs. Burwell are in Louisiana . The young people all vote it a success, and wish the prominent young
gentlemen of our city who gave the reception many such returning occasion as
that enjoyed this evening.
