The feast was last week celebrated in quite a lively fashion for so small and scattered village.   There were the usual visitors in the persons of shooting gallery, cocoa nut shies, and skittle proprietors.   Monday was the principle day.   Host Trustin, of the Sportsman Inn, had collected a good sum of money from tradesmen and others, and this he devoted to prizes for a capital programme of athletic sports, which were held in a neighbouring paddock.   Prizes:-
