The Director.

PRESENT. 
Sir, 
Childrens Band Fund. 
I have the honour to ash permission for the Band of the 3rd 
Brahmans to he allowed to play in the Gardens on Monday next, the 
30th inst, between 5 and 6.IB p.m. 
I have ashed the Colonel and Officers to instruct light 
Music to be played, suitable for the children, and to instruct the 
Band-master to march his men round the ring during the last two 
tunes, as this affords great satisfaction to the children, and I 
ask your permission again for this to be allowed. 
Last Monday the attendance at the Gardens was the largest I 
have ever witnessed, as regards children and adults. 
Naturally I haven't advised the Police of any of these 
performances, thinking .that this would be interfering, but I would 
respectfully suggest that the Chief Police Officer be asked to send 
up one or two more men there, as Motor Cars do not obey your 
instructions of going in at one end and coming out at the other. 
They enter at both ends of the ring still. 
I have the honour to be, 
Sir, 
Your obedient Servant,
