Lawyers' vacation is about over, and the brethren are gathering home - Wickham has got back from the Thousand Isles - Marshall from the cranberry swamps of Butler- Daugherty from Atlantic City, where he was catching "Sheepheads" with Quay, and watching the antics of the lady swimmers - Buchanan from Old Hanover and the Democratic Convention - Martin from pitching hay near ye ancient town of Darlington -Thornson from the classic shades of Independence - Harrah from the land of Co. Chill Hazzard - Bigger from Frankfort Springs, and the companionship of our old friend Jimmy McCutcheon - Cunningham from his farm in Industry Township - Henry from West Virginia - Mellon from Woodlawn, where he was to have debated the capital punishment question - Grim from the mountains round about Galilee - Frank Reed from the hills of Hopewell - Pierson from New York City - Mecklem from Old North Sewickley, the "home of Democracy" - Moore (W.S.) from orating at Millersville State Normal School - Moore (A.S.) from studying Germany at Chautauqua - Ledlie from seeing where the funny Free Press was printed - Wilson, out from under his own vine and fig tree - with McCoy only to hear from - who it is feared has become so infatuated with his newly married life, that he has become lost in the fogs of Lake Erie. P.S. Mack has turned up all right brown as a berry, and frisky as a young colt.
