THE CANADIAN PAGEANT. FOREIGN OFFICE RECEPTION
(Received Last Night, 11.15 o'clock.)
LONDON, May 23.
After a prolonged discussion, it has been decided that a representation of the Battle of Chateauguay will be included in the Canadian pageant at the Festival of Empire. At the Foreign Office reception 80,000 thousand people were present. The function was the largest and the most brilliant of recent years. Every member of both Houses, every Privy Councillor, and many high officials and oolonial residents were invited.
Lord. Beauchamp, official host, on behalf of the Government, entertained the Committee. The entrance to the hall and the staircase was converted into a fairy land, flowers and the national colours predominating.
