this

to

early,

not
quite
as

as

Christmas
trade
generally
was
reported
by
the
most
of
merchants,
however,
to
have
been
quite
up
to
expectations.
The
city
was
orderly
and
the
police
had
no
exceptional
cases
to
deal
with.
There
was
a
good
deal
of
Jollification
but
all
of
a
good-natured
and
harmless
nature.
