“The Montefiore Benevolent Union last evening held a Summer Night’s Festival at the Central Park Garden, the proceeds of which will be devoted to its charitable fund. The members and their friends turned out in great strength, and the assemblage was a most select and yet a jovial one. Music was furnished by Theo. Thomas’ well known orchestra, and it is needless to say that the performances were of a most excellent character. The utmost good feeling prevailed all through the festivities, which were kept up with great zest until the small hours were well upon the happy throng. The Montefiore Union has reason for double congratulations, both as to the pleasantness of the festival and the solid addition which its proceeds made to its chartable fund.”
