The following menu was a big pot of good oldâ€"fashioned cup potato, a big bannock made on the old Tryâ€" ing pan held to a blazing fire of red hot coals in the old fire place, beech nut pork and gravy and tho‘ tea was $1.25 a pound, it was a treat to celeâ€" brate the event. : The good father in a reverential manner, thanked the Giver for His kindress on this occasion and all felt as well satisfied as the many did at yesterday‘s Xmas feast. To our near and faithful relatives, we return thanks for their kindness in treating us to a contrast between our boyhood days and old age. May they long be spared to share in their liberality in future years to come.
