Grand Banquet to the Lord Mayor of London, at Hastings, 1850. Creator: Unknown

Grand Banquet to the Lord Mayor of London, at Hastings, [Sussex], 1850. The banquet took place in an elegant room, embellished with statues of the Muses. On a table, in the centre of the room, stood...the vast silver punch-bowl presented by the Barons who attended the coronation of King George II. and Queen Caroline...The more distinguished of the guests occupied a table...situated on a slightly elevated dais. Behind and above them were the national colours and the corporation arms. [The banquet] was provided by Mr. Carswell, of the Swan Hotel, assisted by Messrs. Ring and Brymer...'. The Mayor of Hastings welcomed Thomas Farncomb...as an honourable merchant and banker; we welcome you especially to-day as the chief magistrate of the first city in the world, and as the first Sussex man who has ever held that proud office. (Loud cheers.)'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850
