The garden is on high ground in the middle of the town, overlooking the great harbor, and it adjoins the spacious grounds of Government House--fifty-six acres; and at hand also, is a recreation ground containing eighty-two acres.

In addition, there are the zoological gardens, the race-course, and the great cricket-grounds where the international matches are played.

Therefore there is plenty of room for reposeful lazying and lounging, and for exercise too, for such as like that kind of work.
There are four specialties attainable in the way of social pleasure.

If you enter your name on the Visitor's Book at Government House you will receive an invitation to the next ball that takes place there, if nothing can be proven against you.

And it will be very pleasant; for you will see everybody except the Governor, and add a number of acquaintances and several friends to your list.
