Lenham Agricultural Association.
The annual ploughing match of this association took place on Friday
last, in a field belonging to Mr. W. Powell of East Lenham. A list of
the prizes described on the occasion will be found at our advertising
columns.
The dinner took place at the "Lion Inn," Sir Edmunds Filnest, Bart., M.P.
