Light Bain
Beautiful summer weather was experienced throughout the week-end and many people spent Sunday out of doors, the ferry boats to the Mount being well patronised. Light rain set in last night, however, and a total of 12 points had been recorded up to 9 o'clock this morning, when light rain was still falling. A light mist enveloped the town and surrounding countryside early this morning.
