Volunteer fete given by Mr. Harvey, the High Sheriff of Norfolk, at Crown Point, near Norwich: the Sports, 1862. ...the sports...comprised a hurdle-race for mounted volunteers, foot and wheelbarrow races, a post-office, a wheel of fortune, the songs of a band of Christys minstrels; the comicalities of that most primitive of our dramatic representations, Punch and Judy; conjuring, vaulting, the climbing of greasy poles, and a host of other amusements...The festivities closed, soon after nightfall, with a magnificent display of fireworks, by Mr. Tucker, of the Cremorne Gardens. Thus ended a fete that has had no parallel in Norfolk, either in regard to the extent or the completeness of its arrangements, or the generous hospitality which extended to so large a number of persons. From "Illustrated London News", 1862.
