No. 4.] CRESCENT FARM. 203 



our ambition in that direction. You will do us great kind- 

 ness, and it will be a great pleasure to us, if every one of 

 you will go down this afternoon. The cars leave in front 

 of this hall at twenty-five minutes past 1. You will l)e 

 twenty-one minutes going down, reaching the farm at 2 

 o'clock, where you will be asked to view both the inside of 

 the barn and the inside of the house. We hope that it may 

 give you some new inspiration, and perhaps lead your 

 mind to some new ambitions. 



Those who live in Boston can, if they prefer, continue on 

 the electric car for thirty-five minutes into Boston, getting 

 into Boston as quickly as if they returned to Worcester and 

 took the steam cars. It is possible to go down and back in 

 two hours ; but we hope, however, that you will see enough 

 to occupj^ your attention so that you will favor us with just 

 a little lonoer visit. 



Adjourned sine die at 12.10 p.:\[. 



A large number of those present at the forenoon session 

 availed themselves of the opportunity to visit Crescent Farm 

 in Shrewsbury, and left there with teelings of gladness that 

 they had been led to accept Mr. and Mrs. Wood's kind 

 invitation. The weather was mild, and the conditions for 

 the excursion were delightful. The inspection of the farm 

 proved a source of pleasure, and the attentions of the host 

 and hostess were greatly enjojed.
