An all-round-the-table talk now followed as to whether, the Ladies Auxiliary or Agricultur- al Society had the greater right to the Town Hall. .lt was said that the Council Chamber is too small for the Agricultural Soeie`ty,and that the ladies require the hall on the 19th for only decorating purposes They could therefore cease their work in" the hall for two or three hours whi'e the society is in session; The following motion was then put and carried :-That the Women s Auxiliary to Victoria Hospital be given the Town Hall on Thursday. 20th .inst.. and that por- tion of Wednesday, l9th._ when not required by the Agriculturalsocietv. n.......... `D........ n..m.....n .....: n........:n-_l 'oooImendiog the acceptance of Wm.
