Mr. Ainsley was loyal and protestant to the backbone ; so was Mr. Langshawe; and so, par excellence^ were Mr. Balshawe and his son.
On the announcement of dinner, the first important business was for each to secure his allotted seat in the great room of the Hall, which then unfinished, had been hastily prepared for the occasion with material of the same sub- stantial fabric as that which had glistened so gaily in the theatre, but of a graver counte- nance, being " light stone colour ;" and the ...windows, " the cornices of which were gilt and brilliantly burnished, were ornamented with flowing crimson curtains, and the ceiling was beautifully formed into panels in the centre, with rosettes at the angles." The room was lighted with bronze gas-chandeliers, and the sixteen tables were so arranged as that " each person enjoyed the pleasure of a clear and 106 WILLIAM LANGSHAWE, uninterrupted view of the interesting per- sonage in honour of whom the company had assembled." But it may fairly be predicated that even that " interesting personage " was for a time thrown into the shade by the nearer view of, amongst other things, " feur large turbot ; six large cod ; two large salmon ; twenty dishes of soles; one hundred lobsters; thirty-two tureens of turtle ; two haunches of venison ; four necks do.
