Captain _Hunt said he understood that the Westerly Veteran Firemen's association were negotiating for the purchase of a hand fire ne for that purpose, but they were wanted in Providence, even if the purchase was not effected. Apparatus would be loaned the Westerly veterans, if de- sired. Captain Hunt also invited the delegates to the Rhode Isl Firemen's league to particip parade, and he promised prominent place in the line. Captain Jack Mullen of East Provi- dence, at this point offered a vote of thanks to the Westerly fircmen for the excellent supper served and for their extremely hospitable reception. The vote was unanimously adopted. Mr. Whitman of Providence said that he realized that the New England League muster was _uncomfortably close to Labor Day, the day upon which the Rhode Isiand League cele- brated, and suggested that there be some sort of :an observance and not permit Rhode Island Firemen’s day to pass unheeded, even if confined to the hose companies, if the hand engine chaps did not’think they could stand two musters close together.
