A detachment of the St John Ambulance Corps, under Supt. T Swindall, and the Nursing Sisters, under Lady Supt. Mrs W Tomlinson,. Marched at four different points of the procession to be at hand in case of emergency, but fortunately their services were not required during the parade.
At the rear of the procession came the wounded soldiers, judges, etc., in motor cars. Thousands of people lined the streets of both towns for the parade. A novel feature was the firing of guns from the “Tank” at intervals. Collections were taken en route.
