Tea being over the floor space was cleared and seating accommodation provided for the large and appreciative audience which listened to the concert programme. The Rev. Mr Wilson in opening the concert expressed pleasure at seeing such a large number present. Many would be thinking that this would be the last time that lie would be present at this animal function.
