LOCAL LECTURE,
A review of important events in naval history with particular reference to the life of Nelson, was given at the Central British School last night by the Rev. G. E. S. Upsdell. The lecture was under the auspices of the local branch of the Navy League, the Vice-President of which Mr. W. A. Dowley, presided.
A number of European residents at Stanley Terrace, Taikoo, were interested parties in a caso heard Paris, May 18.

The lecturer said that whilst Nelson begins the roll of Britain's heroes, much as Napoleon, his great opponent, fills the stage from the French point of view, it must not be forgotten that long before the day when the man who gave the message to his sailors that England expected every man to do his duty, there lived sea- faring heroes who freely gave: their blood and genius to further England's greatness.
