PRESENTATION TO SIR PETER EADE, M.D. Lond.-On Sept. 25th the corporation of Norwich presented theMayor, Sir Peter Eade, with the honorary freedom of thecity in recognition of the eminent services which he hasrendered to Norwich. The Deputy Mayor, who presided,said that the Mayor was now holding office for the third Itime, the previous occasions having been in 1883-84 and 1893-94, and that he has zealously maintained thedignity of his civic position, a task in which he hasbeen ably supported by Lady Eade. In admitting himto the freedom of the city his fellow citizens havebestowed on him the highest honour at their disposal, anda distinction reserved for exceptional cases. A handsomeand elaborate silver casket containing a richly illuminatedscroll was then handed to the Mayor, who signed the roll andmade the customary declaration. Sir Peter Eade, after

warmly thanking the corporation for the honour which theyhad done him, said that he was not one of those who thoughtthat a professional man should keep aloof from any dutieslying outside his special province. On the contrary, he con-sidered that it was beneficial, even from a professional pointof view, to engage in pursuits which ensured a diversity ofmental occupation. He reminded the company that in ’,Norwich very few medical men had been mayors, thoughsome had been sheriffs. In the last hundred years, excludinghimself, there had been only three medical mayors-namely,Dr. Rigby, Mr. J. Goodwin Johnson, and Mr. Nichols. Inthe evening another ceremony took place in the picturegallery of the Castle Museum, where Lord Walsingham, inthe presence of a large and distinguished company, pre-sented Sir Peter Eade with his portrait.
