A collection of fruit and vegetables very cleverly made into an attractive bouquet, by Mrs. Collins was presented to Mr. Waugh at the conclusion of his talk, Mrs. Waugh receiving a posy of flowers.
A short programme of musical and elocutionary items contributed by Mr. and Mrs. Stamp and Mesdames Theo. Hills, Wilman, and Davey added to the enjoyment of the evening.
