When quiet was restored he proceeded with the address, which in the main was as follows: “This is not the Orst time that I have had the privilege of addressing an audience at Grand Rapids, and f sincerely hope that it will not be the last. nov only accept the opportunity gladly a matter of friendship, but also in pur- suancerof a publicduty.
