Note 16a — CREMORNE GARDENS
Reading edition
A good account in Illustrated London News for July 18, 1863, apparently by Sala; also Illustrated Times of same date. In 1864 Smith gave a monster Belgian fête to the members of the Garde civique of Belgium. On the afternoon of July 14, 1866, there was a pretty juvenile fête, during which a number of miniature balloons were sent up to please the children.
