On Wednesday, Sept. 23, the annual address was deliv- 

 ered by Hon. William H. Moody, before a large audience, 

 in Trinity church, the subject being "Criminal Law," which 

 was listened to with marked attention. 



The Scripture reading and prayer by Rev. W. A. Keese 

 of Lawrence, were very appropriate for the occasion, 

 as was also the excellent singing by the quartette. 



After the conclusion of the services in the church, the 

 annual dinner was served in Porter's Hall, after which 

 President Ware called the assemblage to order and made 

 introductory remarks, and introduced Hon. William 

 Cogswell, President elect Francis H. Appleton, Judge 

 Sherman of the Superior Court, and others, all of whom 

 contributed very interesting and pleasant remarks 

 concerning the history of the Society, and its work now 

 and in the future, and agriculture in general. 



The Grange Exhibit in the vestry of the church . op- 

 posite the hall was a new feature this year, and was 

 a good show of itself. It created a feeling of interest and 

 was an attraction to the general Fair.

 1891, and 1890 at Beverly, are tabulated for comparison as
