Troops lining the route from station to Town Hall.

More troops in the decorated Market Square, including the Godbury School O.T.C.and the Wellingsford and Godbury Volunteers.

I heard that the latter were very anxious to fire off a feu de joie, but were restrained owing to lack of precedent.

The local fire-brigade in freshly burnished helmets were to follow the procession of motor cars, and behind them motor omnibuses with the nurses.
Marigold, although his attendance on me precluded him from taking part in the parade of Volunteers, appeared in full grey uniform with all his medals and the black patch of ceremony over his eyeless socket.

I must confess to regarding him with some jealousy.
