Mr. LEWIS, Post Office, said he had very great pleasure in reading the
resolution, because he knew it would be heartily responded to by everyone
present. It was as follows:--"We, the inhabitants of Borth, beg to
tender our most sincere thanks to Dr. Thring, and all the masters and
scholars of the celebrated Uppingham School, for the very many generous
acts and kindly feelings exhibited towards us during their sojourn here."
Mr. Lewis followed by commenting upon the excellent discipline which
evidently ruled the school, judging from their exemplary conduct out of
school. He was not aware of any shabby, mean, or ungenerous act
committed by the young gentlemen during the whole twelve months they had
been at Borth. (Applause.) The meeting would remember the assistance
rendered in the terrific storm in February. Even the ladies came out and
helped the people in their distress--(loud applause)--thereby setting an
excellent example to the women of Borth. (Cheers.) They had not only
worked as hard as they could, but subscribed money among themselves which
they distributed to the most needy of those who had sustained loss by the
storm. (Applause.) The money then distributed would pass into other
hands in a short time, but the kind feelings the act engendered would
last for ever. (Applause.) He only hoped that each and all connected
with Uppingham School would enjoy long, prosperous, and useful lives.
(Loud applause.)

Mr. JONES, The Baths, expressed the fears he once entertained, in common
with others, that the Uppingham School would take Borth by storm, an
opinion he had to change entirely after the boys had been there a week,
for instead of laughing at the quaintness of some of the Welsh costumes
or the peculiarities of the nation, they had obtained the goodwill of the
inhabitants by their gentleness of demeanour, and completely won their
hearts on that memorable day when masters and scholars, young and old,
turned out to assist in reducing, as much as possible, the ill-effects of
the storm. (Cheers.) He did not exactly wish that some contagious
disease would break out at Uppingham, but he hoped that when the School
got back it would repent, and so return to Borth. (Laughter and cheers.)

Speeches were also made by Mr. Thomas G. Thomas and Mr. R. Pritchard
Roberts, Garibaldi House.

The Rev. E. THRING, M.A., then rose amid cheers and said: Mr. Chairman
and our friends at Borth, I have made many speeches in my l
