24° THE CONNECTICUT POMOLOGICAL SOCIETY. 



The afternoon session was called to order at 3 p. m., by Presi- 

 dent Piatt, and according to the programme, the announcement 

 of the awards was made and topics relating to the exhibits were 

 discussed. Before adjourning, a vote of thanks was extended 

 to the New Britain friends who assisted in making the meeting 

 a success, and especially the committee of the local grange. 



Soon after, the exhibitors began the work of repacking the 

 fruit, and by six o'clock the beautiful pomological display, 

 which had cost so much time and effort to prepare, became a 

 thing of the past. 



It was to be regretted that the exhibition could not have been 

 continued longer or some arrangements made whereby a still 

 larger number might enjoy it. However, as much of the best 

 fruit was turned over to Prof. Gulley for shipment to the Pan- 

 American Exposition in Buffalo, where it added a very credit- 

 able display to the Connecticut exhibit — the Fourth Annual 

 Fruit Show mav be said to have served a useful purpose after 

 all.'
