On Saturday night this wish was at least partially realised when a hundred senior boys held a dance. to which an equal number of sis- lers and couslis and friends were invited..
There was a hand from London, and hosts and guests danced in the library till the early hours, and had supper. In what- used to. be the music-room when the house belonged to the Dukes of Bucking- ham and Chandos,
