The Worshipful Company of Gfrdlers estimate
that the luncheon given by them to the secretary
of state and members of the council of India on
Wednesday works out at something over two
millions sterling head.
The history of this remarkable feast is abso-
1utely unique In 1884 a Mr.. Robert Bell, then
master Of the company, ordered from the East
India company Persian carpet at the cost of
$3.50. For this carpet the East India company
now represt nted by the council of India, never
received payment.
1T was only recently that the present master
of the gfrdlers, the lord mayor, discovered
the debt and made the startling discovery that at
the ordinary rate of compound interest the sum
they now owed amounted to no less than &167,-
600 900.
The girdlers consulted together and came to
the natural conclusion that they could not meet
their obligations. Not wishing, however, to ap-
pear dishonorable. they suggested that they
should entertain the council of India at q lunch
con. which should wipe off the score.
The council agreed, and the girdlers. a re-
suit, entertained them at luncheon over which
the lord mayor presided.
There were seventy-fve guests present so that
each one, so to speak, consumed meal costing
over G2,O00,O00 ,
