In this place we cannot do better than introduce the post-
office, which was under the care of Mrs. Dixon, her lovely
daughters, and Miss Williams. This department was managed
in first-rate style, and formed a very prominent feature of the
Bazaar. The business done, as will be seen in the list of the
receipts was enormous. No one could go free. There were let-
ters for all, and, from the admirable arrangement of the office,
the utmost satisfaction, as to the contents, prevailed. Returning
to the great room, we pass the stalls 16 and 17, belonging to
Mrs. Gartside, which we have already described, and come to
No. 18, occupied by Mrs. Warry, assisted by Mrs. Cooke
and Miss Harding. A variety of handsome contributions, sent
by Mr. Muncaster, Mrs. Webb, Mrs. Lancaster, Miss Atkinson,
the Misses Halliday, &c., decorated this stall.
No. 19 was occupied by Mrs. Peter Wright, assisted by Miss
Wright, the Misses Molyneux, of Alderley; Miss Alice Hutch-
Misses Molyneux, of the Breck, Staplands, and Alderley, and
Hutch-
inson, and Miss Lowe. The principal contributors were the
several other ladies, of Bristol, Chester, and elsewhere. Amongst
the very many beautiful and valuable articles with which this
stall was adorned, was a Pincushion of Honiton lace. It was
intended as a present for her Majesty, but being seen by a gentle-
man connected with the Institution' was purchased by him for
the bazaar. On the top is worked a sprig of moss-roses, con-
taining in the various flowers and buds likenesses of the Queen
and Prince Albert, and the royal infants. The price fixed upon
this article was .t. 5 ss. One of the most natural objects was a fac
simile of an Edinburgh fish-woman, perfect in every particular
