Doodle" and "Dixie," after which, led by Democracy, they all leave the stage.
The last scene in the pageant represented "The First Polish Farmer in Sunderland." (The Poles began to arrive in 1884.) A Polish peasant comes through the trees, scythe in hand, and seats himself on the hillside and a group of Yankee children gather about him for a story. He describes to them Poland's struggle for freedom, and, when he is in the midst of his recital Kosciusko's little army of peasants appear upon the green, visualizing the story of Poland's struggle to throw off the fetters of Autocracy.
Thirty or more of our Polish neighbors under the leadership of "Captain" Alexander Grybko, were in the scene and their excellent marching to the Polish National Airs called forth much applause.
The historical pageant closed with an interlude entitled, "The Twentieth Century, Democracy Calls to the World" and this introduced the Masque, "The Drawing of the Sword," written by Thomas Wood Stevens. This masque was intensely patriotic and stirring and its effect upon the minds of all who saw it must have been such as to strengthen them in the devo- tion to our own beloved Nation then at war, and to arouse a spirit which would demand what we were fighting for, righte- ousness, justice and equity for all nations of the world. As Mr. Stevens' work is a premanent contribution to our dramatic literature, it is unnecessary to describe the Masque in detail.
The Pageant and Masque will long stand out in the memory of all who witnessed it. Great credit for its success is due to the committee in charge consisting of Mrs. Mary P. Smith, Mrs. Mary H. Darling, Mrs. Edna I. Clark and Mr. A. C. War- ner; also to the committee who worked so hard to decorate and illuminate the pageant grounds, consisting of Mr. Richard W. Graves, Mr. William F. Campbell, Mr. Arthur W. Hubbard, Mr. George C. Hubbard and Mr. Philip F. Whitmore; also to . the Publicity Committee consisting of Mr. Charles F. Clark, Mrs. Nellie W. Russ and Mrs. Edith G. Moline and the Pro-
71
gram committee consisting of Miss Carrie A. Harper and Mrs. Nellie W. Russ ..
At the reception and concert in the Town Hall on Saturday evening the room was crowded and visitors and neighbors de- lighted themselves in social intercourse while an orchestra furnished music. The concert, which was under the direction of Mrs. Kathleen R. Williams, Mrs. Eloise T. Fairchild and Mrs. Belle T. Bullis and which was conducted by Rev. B. F. Gustin of North Amherst, followed the reception and was taken part in by some twenty-five of our best singers. They were dressed in early nineteenth century costume and their reper- toire consisted of the quaint but substantial old fashioned melodies found between the covers of "Father Kemp's Melo- dies."
The Sunday services were splendidly attended, though it would seem as if our people must be fatigued by reason of re- hearsals for the past three weeks, two days of anniversary, and many with a house full of guests.
There were three hundred and one out to the morning ser- vice and all were much pleased with the sermon of the Rev. Mr. Newcomb of Keene, N. H., and the music arranged for by Mrs. Belle T. Bullis. The afternoon service at three o'clock was attended by two hundred and seventy-three people and, although it did not dismiss until nearly six o'clock, the histori- cal papers, and remarks by the neighboring clergymen, held the interest to the last.
The evening service gathered two hundred and thirty-four together for a fine sermon by Dr. F. E. Emrich of Boston and it furnished a very fitting close for the anniversary week.
A word ought to be said about the decorations both in and without the public buildings and on the residences. They were in charge of a committee consisting of Mr. Harold C. Pomeroy Mr. Walter R. Williams, Mrs. Blanche B. Hubbard, Mrs. Flor- ence G. Hubbard and Mrs. Hattie M. Warner. The school house, library, church and many of the houses were decorated by a firm of professional decorators and practically all the residences
72
displayed the National Colors. The street in its gala day attire silently announced to the thousands who passed through our town that the daring, bravery and sacrifice of the fathers had not been forgotten and that we were recalling to mind the events of the last two hundred years, resolved that we would build nobly upon the foundation so securely laid by them.
Respectfully submitted,
REV. SYLVESTER P. ROBERTSON,
Secretary.
