The CHAIRMAN: Those who know Bellefonte will know that it is 

 equipped for almost anything that may come up with men or women, 

 and when we were called on to look about for somebody to make 

 the address of welcome, our attention was directed very naturally to 

 our most distinguished and best known citizen^ General James A. 

 Beaver, distinguished by having three honorable titles, General, 

 Governor and Judge, and he agreed to take the place and deliver the 

 address; but a sad accident befell him shortly after, and while he 

 has, in a great degree, recovered from that, as you will all be glad 

 to know, he has not recovered sufficiently to get here and perform 

 that duty. A night ride from Philadelphia, which would be nec- 

 essary, is not deemed prudent for him in the present state of his 

 health. I deem it due to General Beaver, the Department of Agri- 

 culture and the citizens of Bellefonte, to make that statement; and 

 then of coUrse we turn to another. We have one with us who is 

 as representative a farmer as is General Beaver, and as representa- 

 tive a mr.n in a great many directions. The fact that he is president 

 of the biggest bank in town, I know will not affect him disastrously 

 in your opinion. I take great pleasure in presenting to you Colonel
