On the side of the wall in large letters was the word Welcome in evergreen on the other side hal been erected q band stand, which was also decorated with holly, evergreen and bunting.
 The grand nsrch vas called at nins o'clock and was rllyed by the Queen Cornet Band, the members of which deserve great credit for excellent man. ner in which they play for the short 'ime they have had in which to prsc tice.
