The employees of the factory surprised him at his home on Tuesday evening and presented him with a fine gold-headed cane and the following address:

We are sure you kind remembrance of the days we passed together.

      Permit us, dear, friend, as a small token of remembrance to offer you this handsome cane, and that shall always lead you in the right path and protect night in and of day, vigor at home and abroad, days and venerable and respected old age.

      Yours respectfully, THE EMPLOYEES OF THE RUSSELL CIGAR FACTORY.
