Washington’s Birthday Celebration

“The council of the Union League Association prepared a pleasing programme for the celebration of the anniversary of Washington’s birthday at their meeting room, corner of Eighth avenue and Forty-sixth street. The programme included some of the choicer popular melodies, which were agreeably sung by the vocalists of the Council and a few female friends. The feature of the celebration, however was an address of Major Douglass Campbell…The exercises were concluded by the entire audience singing the ‘Star Spangled Banner.’”
