EXCURSIONISTS' ANNUAL DINNER, 



One of the most successful of these always pleasant gatherings took place on 

 the 16th of June, at the Swan Hotel, Leatherhead. Fifty-nine members and 

 their friends attended, and the chair was taken by the President, Dr. Matthews. 

 The weather was delightful, and those who were able to spend the day in the 

 neighbourhood enjoyed an extremely pleasant ramble. Mr. Thos. Rogers and 

 some of his friends added greatly to the pleasure of the evening by some ex- 

 cellent part-singing. The whole of the arrangements, which were under the 

 care of Mr. W. W. Reeves, were highly satisfactory.
