Old Folk Have Happy - !.'


iReunion Party


’p e rh ap s the most satisfying feature—in more senses than one—of the Charter celebrations was the Old Folks’ re­


union and; party at the Parish Church School on Wednes­ day, arranged by the Mayoress (Mrs. Wilkinson) and her committee; The party was attended by nearly 500 people of 70 years oi age and over and earlier in the afternoon the majority had a ride round the countryside in coaches and taxis,-


The trip was arranged by


Mr. N. Roberts, of the Station Taxi Service, and other firms- who gave cars and coaches were Wellgate Motors Ltd,, Messr. G. Barton'and Co. Ltd., Mrs. Blackhurst, Messrs. Tom­ linson’s Ltd.,’ B o l t o n - b y Bowland Motor Services Ltd., the Bounty 'Motor. Services, Slaldburn, and the -Burgess Taxi Serylce, Accrington:


Other coaches were hired,


and altogether accommoda­ tion was provided for nearly 400.


i The old folk assembled In


the Grammar School yard, where ten coaches and eleven cars were waiting to take them on a* two-hour ride through some of the loveliest parts of the district. The old folk were taken by


way of Chatburn, Sawley, Copy Nook, Holden, Slaldburn, NOwton and Dunsop to White- well, where they had a short rest, and then they -returned via Bashall Eaves to Clitheroe.


DECORATED ROOMS Both the upper and lower


rooms of the. Parish Church School had been beautifully decorated with flowers by the Corporation Parks staffs, and the tables by the Mayoress’s Committee. ’! After a welcome by the


Mayoress, the old folk were served by Messr, Agars Ltd., of Manchester, )vith a splendid meal, each portion consisting of pressed ham, ox tongue, cold roast Ijeef and salad. Then followed * cream trifle, fruit jelly, failcy cakes and cut cake.

the cakes as well. There was not a scrap left on the tables,” he declared.


■ ' ; On the stage was a huge


cake weighing l-cwt„ the gift of Mr. H. Thomas, of Wiswell. I t was cut by the Mayoress and distributed to the old folk, who were afterwards enter­ tained by Mir. Ernest Blnns’ Concert party.


| GIFT PARCELS ! During the afternoon and


evening, the Mayoress and Mrs. H. Gradwell, organising secretary, took 117 parcels to old folk who were Unable to attend. Each parcel contained ham, tongue and salad sand­ wiches, fruit jelly, trifle and fancy cake. The ! Mayoress called personally ;on each recipient and had; a short chat. ,


I The party was a wonderful


success from every | point of view, and the Mayoress, Mrs. Gradwell and the coirimlttee are deserving of warrii thanks. By efforts such as juirible sales, whist drives; brlng-and-buy


sales, and dances, they had during the past few months raised over £150 towards the cost of the party. - i

ESTIMATES ; of the crowd In the Castle grounds on


Saturday have varied widely, but the official figures ■ are that 1,377 paid for admission to the enclosure, and 6,242 to .the grounds. 'With the 1,000 performers, this makes a total


of 8,619. Although the crowd did not i


appear to be as large as at the 1935' and 1937 pageants. It certainly-came very near, so the estimates Of 15,000 ito 20,000 made at those times


were well .wide of the' mafk. The pageant Is likely to have cost £ 1,000 td stage, but It Is expected tha t 'a bumper atten^ dance to-morrow will clfear
