Brief complimentary addresses were then delivered by Edgar MacCulloch, Esq., F.S.A., Bailiff (Chief Magistrate) of Guernsey, and by F.J. Jeremie, Esq., M.A., Jurat of the Royal Court, and the proceedings terminated with a hearty vote of thanks to the Lieut.-Governor, proposed by the Very Rev. Carey Brock, M.A., Dean of Guernsey. A brass plate attached to Mr. Guille's portrait bears the following inscription:-- Presented to THOMAS GUILLE, Esq., by his numerous friends, in recognition of the great benefit he has conferred upon the inhabitants of his native Island as one of the Founders of the Guille-Alles Library. Guernsey, 17 December, 1884. A similar plate, bearing the name of Mr. Frederick Mansell Alles, is attached to his portrait. Note.--The Assembly Rooms were built by private subscription in 1782, at a cost of about L2,500, and had therefore been in existence exactly a century when they passed into the hands of Messrs. Guille and Alles in 1882. During this long period they were the fashionable _foyer_ of the Island's festivity and gaiety, and formed the scene of many a brilliant gathering. * * * * * A.
