_the past six weeks returned to their

both speak in most glowing terms of 
their trip across the water to England 
and back. When they left Boston 
some weeks ago they were given a 
royal sendoff by a party of friends and 
they were received no less eagerly on 
their return this week. 
They left Liverpool at 4.30 p.m, 
Tuesday, March 28, on the “ Ivernia”’

While in England Messrs. Hoare

interest and saw much of general in- 
terest to the traveler. In a later issue 
our readers may expect to find a full 
account of the trip. Among the 
places visited was Mr. Hoare’s former
