Christmas* Chatwin, Johnson, Barotitis, Elder, Ball, Boulter, Jones, Withy, Bartlett, Ireland, Donovan, Teague, and McKinney. During the evening the chairman explained the position of the brigade, and while expressing pleasure ab the fact that their services had nob been required throughout the year, said they had ever been ready to answer any summons. They had been thoroughly examined by the insurance companies, and the inspection had been satisfactory. A longservice medal, the first presented to this brigade, was pinned on to Foreman Butler by Miss M. Porter.
