Choral Society Concert

New York, 1895

Tickets for the first concert of the Jamaica Choral Society, which takes place at the opera house next Wednesday evening, are meeting with a good sale at Peck's. There are still some good seats unsold, and persons who contemplate attending the concert should avail themselves of the opportunity of being suited.


Killed by Frost

Frost was visible in many parts of the town of Jamaica on Friday morning and thin ice formed in some localities. Tomato plants were killed and much damage was done to the potato and bean crops. The fruit trees were not injured.


Peterson — Pearsall

On Wednesday evening Newcomb D. Peterson and Miss Lillie A. Pearsall, both of Jamaica, were married at the Methodist parsonage by the Rev. H. A. Beatty.
