Seasonal Generosity
Mr Buckingham Pope, managing director of Denaby Main Colliery, has presented to each householder at Denaby, employed by the firm, a rabbit.
It is also stated that Mr Pope is forwarded to Doncaster Union and Doncaster Infirmary a cart load of the same fare.
It is needless to add that Mr Pope seasonal generosity is much appreciated.
