From three o‘clock in the afternoon until almost midnight Mrs. Yeager was the busiest and mostâ€" hospitable hostess that this season has known in GRIMSBY and many guests were in duced to prolong their visit until the next day. Many of the friends who came had been guests at the wedding of twentyâ€"five years ago, and that all the friends old and new wished to show that they were good friends was plainly to be seen, for upon a table Mrs. Yeager arranged a numâ€" erous collection of silver presents.
