‘A meeting of the Richmond Centenary Committee was held on Monday night, there were about forty persons present. Several suggestions in the way of sports programmes, &c, were passed and these will be presented to the united meeting to be held next Monday night in the School of Arts. In connection with this meeting, a calico sign has been hung in a conspicuous place in Windsor-street, and by this means it is hoped to convey to the county folk, passing through the town, an intimation that the meeting is to be held.’
