There was a very long cortege at the funeral of Mrs Daly Davies on Tuesday. Mrs Davies took an active interest in tennis and golf, and was a member of the South Canterbury Women's Club and Dramatic Society. She was also prominent in church work, being a member of the Banks Street Methodist Church. Hundreds of expressions of sympathy and floral tributes were reoeived by the relatives. Five Royal stallholdes who worked strenuously all day at a fete in the grounds of Abergeldie Castle, Deeside, Scotland, included her Majesty the Queen, who had a china and fancy stall. The Queen was besieged with buyers, and had sold all her stock by 4 p.m. The Duke of York disposed of grouse, and the Duchess busily sold cabbages and pots of jam. The two Princesses, Elizabeth and Margaret, did a roaring trade selling white and purple heather, so much so that they had to send for more goods.
