The floor was in splendid order and the music, supplied by Mrs Lockett, was all that could be desired. The catering was in the capable hands of Mr W. S. Dustin who, as usual, gave entire satisfaction.
The committee — Messrs P. Benefield, A. Holmes, P. Fremont, W. Murphy and A. Benefield - deserve great credit for the general excellence of the arrangements. Dancing was kept going until an early hour this morning, all present thoroughly enjoying themselves, a result greatly due to the efficient manner in which the M.'s C. carried out their duties.
The following are a few who appeared in fancy costume - Ladies: Mrs F. Jeffreys, Periodicals: Misses Benefield, Flower Girl; J. Gichard, French Peasant;
