Thanks to the introduction of some new features of
attraction this meeting opened well, and is likely to ex-
cel the best of its Craven predecessors of late years. The
attendance of company was fully of an average strength,
and some of the contests, though prospectively unim-
portant, created a lively interest. The sun shone forth
with great power, but had little attempering effect on
a keen and searching " nor' easter."
