New York, 1895
Notes from Aqueduct
Wyckoff Boerum, Sr., is recovering from a severe illness.
B. Jones expects that his cottage will be ready for occupancy in a few weeks.
Mrs. W. Remsen has gone away for a few weeks on a visit to her father at Jones' Point.
The lecture on "Broken Crockery" by Rev. W. E. Blandy, at the Centreville M. P. Church, was much appreciated by a good congregation.
Mrs. Blandy, the wife of the pastor, is spending a few weeks in Atlantic City. She says there are a great many visitors there already enjoying the sights.
A few days since about 1,000 persons paid 10 cents to go on the pier to see a fishing net drawn up containing a sea monster measuring 9 feet in length.
At a meeting of the trustees of the M. P. Church on Saturday, a motion was carried that Mrs. Blandy be requested to deliver one of her humorous lectures for the benefit of the church repair fund. The lecture will be given probably on May 22.
