We had interviews with the military and railway authorities.

We were in constant communication with the local Volunteer Training Corps; with the Godbury Volunteers and the Godbury School O.T.C., who both desired to take a part in the great event.

In compliance with the conditions imposed, we gave as much publicity as we could to Mrs.Boyce.
Lieutenant Colonel Boyce, V.C., and Mrs.Boyce were officially associated in the programme of the reception.

How to disentangle them afterwards, when the presentation of the address, engrossed on velluni and enclosed in a casket, should be made to the Colonel, was the subject of heated and confused discussion.

Then the feminine elements in town and county desired to rally to the side of Mrs.Boyce.The Red Cross and Volunteer Aid Detachment Nurses claimed representation.
