This trip I happened to fnid that G. O. 

 F. (Grand GUI Florist) Jno. Spalding in a 

 reminiscent mood, and as a consequence 

 a chat was in order. It is apparently an 

 easy matter for this veteran of past four- 

 score to carry one back fifty years or 

 more, surveying the history of our pro- 

 fession particularly, and kindred matters 

 incidently and summarily, to express the 

 opinion that we are yet but in infancy 

 and will accomplish even greater feats 

 than have vet been done. Marvelous to 

 my mind is the fact of our friend's 

 youth and vigor, keeping in touch with 

 the leading topics of the day and putting 

 to shame many of the "up-to-date" young 

 men of the period. The house he has 

 lived in for so many years (it was built in 

 1737) carries its burden of years as lightly 

 as its venerable owner. W. M.
