The spirits of our ancestors, the "fruits of whose labors we enjoy in our glorious old form of government and -in the formation of our national ideals, will be grieved if America becomes ithe land of materialism, forgetting its basic ideals. In combating such ten- dencies and in helping to hold the ‘balance of truth and righteousness, let us draw inspiration from the re- | membrance of our forbears, ‘We have had centuries to absord dnto -our .very bloecd what good in thé. spirit of our country. Through leading respectable lives of usefulness | our forefathers have bestowed upcn most of us the advantages of educa- tion and, wlu: is ‘infinitely more im- portant, tl advantages of homes with the rmhm of honorable up- rightness and service, Hence I say that the use of old families in the re- public is that each household can and be a focus of the goodold American spirit of conu{:. justice, { loyaity, kindliness and trut!

Cablegram from London. During the afternoon session a ca- blegram was received from Hon. Thomas Huntington of London, Bng., in. whose house are the headquarfers, saying that he wanted to be with the. Huntington. family at their reunion, |it, but was unable to make connections. Present Status of Huntingtons. After the hymn Now Thank We Al Our God, the historian, Hon. Samuel Gladden Huntington, of Hartford, gave an address on The Present Status of the Huntington Family and the kind of people who compose it. An account of his work in. connection with the records of the family was given. Some of those to whom he wrot¢ wished him m‘ them their family history and on on the family tree rather than impart information. Interesting ru:tl were given concerning those who have bullt up towns'in the far west; of one family of four ggnerations of physicians, and also showing how and rejoice in the glorious heritage that is ours? It is not given to all of us to attain such prominence as these illustrious men and women here mentioned, but 'surely there is a great object lesson here for us. Whether our lot be among the great cnes or the lowly ones of our family, each of us keeping ever before him the honor of name, should strive to do his share in the work of the world to the best of his ability and ‘endeavor, to transmit to future generations this glorious name ag-pure and .unsullied as he received After a short business meeting pre/ sided: over by Prof. Ellsworth Hun ington of New Haven, assistant secre- tary, those present were invited iv visit places of interest in tHe old town before nightfall., SPENCER IS TAKEN TO CHARLESTOWN PRISON.
