At Banbury and Fremantle we were received with kindness and enthusiastic demonstrations.

At Banbury we met Mr.Weld.He was on his way to King George's Sound, en route for his new Government in Tasmania.

He welcomed us very heartily, and expressed his regret that he was unable to receive us at Perth.

The popular air, When Johnny comes marching home again, was selected as extremely appropriate to the occasion, and after a champagne breakfast at the residence of the Chairman of the Municipal Council, Mr.
Marmion, at Fremantle, we left for Perth in a carriage and six, Tommy Windich and Tommy Pierre riding on gaily-decked horses immediately behind us.
On reaching Perth we were met by the Commandant, Colonel Harvest, the chairman and members of the Reception Committee, and representatives of the Friendly Societies.

The streets were crowded, and on our way to the Town Hall we were enthusiastically cheered.
