Quite a large number of
soldiers have returned to this county during the past week, and
received warm welcomes from their relatives and friends.
By far, the greater number
came in on Sunday, but, unfortunately, they were not able to arrive
on one car.
A number therefore missed the informal welcome planned
for them at 3.30 in the afternoon.
The soldiers band, which is
faithfully practicing a couple of evenings a week, was at the 3.30
car, and played a number of selections, reminding its hearers of the
days when the 39th band, and later the 133rd band, gave so much
enjoyment.
A large number of
townspeople also visited the station and greeted the soldiers.
Among the lucky ones to
return during the week were:
A. Angus
H. Bannister
George Blake
