SPECIAL PROGRAMME OF THE TOWN OF

SENECA FALLS.

SULLIVAN CENTENNIAL CLEEBRATION.

The committee of the town of Seneca Falls have made arrangements for the town to unite in the Sullivan Centennial Celebration at Waterloo, on the third of September. It is hoped that our citizens generally will take an active interest in the Celebration in a manner that shall creditably represent the town. The commissary will be on the plan of a basket picnic, but the invited guests of the town will be furnished with dinner. It is particularly requested by the committee that citizens will furnish supplies. Those willing to do so, and all others wishing to send provisions for their own use, can send the same (labelled with their names) to the store of Messrs Bull and Addison, on Fall street. The committee will furnish transportation to the town tent on the Fair Grounds, where they will be in charge of a competent person selected for that purpose, and where those sending baskets can call for them.

The following will be the order of march, and it is hoped that all designing to take part in the exercises, and all the different organizations, will report promptly and thus avoid delay, as it is intended to move precisely at the time specified :
