I have noted the references to Thomas JACKSON & members
of the DARE family. I particularly enjoyed that Thomas JACKSON’s pony, which always finished out of the
money in races, was called Dismay.

was in the boat. No row took place… Cooney was drunk. |

A dispute between DARE and the newspaper concerning facts
about a dispute with the old Amateur Dramatic Corps. (Dare was Hon
Secretary). It concerned the erection of the Gaity Theatre. A MR. MERRY had objected to leasing to smaller groups, and was
supported by Mr. MOLLISON. But beyond this, there seems to be an absence
of all desire on the part of the old corps to assist in the formation of the
new one. NOTE: This would be James Pender MOLLISON (1844-1831). He & Jackson would have served together on the Chamber of Commerce, and the Cricket Club, and have shared business interests as well.. |

Letter from J. Julius DARE, Hon Sec Yokohama
