There was another part of Mr. Hayes' address to which I wish to
say "ditto," — that in which he thanked the citizens of Minneapolis
for their magnificent hospitality to-day. Before we separate, we shall
of course pass a formal vote of tlianks ; but that cannot express the
feelings of our hearts, — the regret which we experience at parting
with you. We are sorry not to see you in your own homes, and know
you better ; but we feel the great kindness and consideration shown to
us to-day in our delightful drive through your city, and in the elegant
collation served with such simplicity and good taste. Ood bless you,

T and may we meet again.
