. Centennial celebration at Danvers, Mass., June 16, 1852. ng residence in London, to renew many oldfriendships, and to form many new acquaintances .among my countrymen andcountrywomen ; and it has been my good fortune to be permitted to cultivate thesein social life, where I have endeavored as much as possible, to bring my British andAmerican friends together.
