Tlie last bag was divided into six lots, and the 
samples realised 5 shillings per lb. The sale began 
by a reference from the Chai man (Mr. Rouse) 
to the relief of Mafeking and to its gallant de- 
fence, in which the wiiole Emijire took the utmost 
interest, the universal feeling being that wliat 
eflecled one portion of the Empire affected the 
whole — tliis being exemp'ificd by I his sale. Tliree 
cheers were given for Lieutenant-Geneval Baden- 
Powfil and his gallarit gairison. At the con- 
clusion ot the sale, after .'■inging the National 
AnilKni, it vas rtsolved that the hist thinks of 
the coffee trade be tendeied to Mr. Coolavandra 
Appiah for liis donation, and the meeting con- 
eluded by singing " For he is a joiJy good fellow."
