MINIMAY NEWS
On Friday evening last the annual Bachelors Ball took place, and under the
circumstances proved most successful. The unsettled state of the weather,
and the roads, greatly interfered with the attendance. Nevertheless there
were about 38 couples present, and a very enjoyable evening was spent.
Messrs A. QUINLIVAN and P. J. CARRACHER supplied the music, and Mr N.
McINTYRE, carried out the duties of M.C. The catering for the supper was
in the capable hands of Mrs John WHEELER, who carried out her work in very
pleasing manner indeed.
