Miss Moroney* (piano), Mr Hill (violin) and Mr Brown (cornet) supplied the music. Extras were played by Misses Eaton (2), 'Carlson, M'ddleton, Paten, Ritchie, and Mr Olsen. The duties of M.C. were carried out by members of the corps, including Captain Davidson, Lieuts. Adams, and Neilsen, Sergeant Greenwood and Bridson, and Privates McKay and Eyles. Mrs Morgan^ who was in charge of the catering, excelled herself in the numerous delicacies provided, and the tables were also very nicely decorated.
