Helston Flora Day: An Unqualified Success: Though shorn of the glory which crowned it two years ago, when the Lord Mayor of London honoured it with his presence, and even denied the privilege of being celebrated on the time-honoured 8th, the ancient festival of Flora Day, kept at Helton on Tuesday, was an unqualified success. … The Horse Show: The horse show was held in the afternoon in the Nansloe Grounds (lent by Mr. H. Montague Rogers). The show was in every way up to the average, and the attendance was most encouraging. The conditions were in every way perfect, and the horses were seen to the best advantage. The horses as a whole were good, particularly the hunters, the winner (the property of Mr. F. Rowe, St. Columb), being an exceptionally fine animal, and was awarded the special prize for the best riding horse in the show. In the class for harness horses there was keen competition between Mr. Pinsent, Newton Abbot, and Mr. H. Montague Rogers, of Helston. The former, however, came off victorious, and won the special for the best harness horse. In the jumping class for cobs and ponies Mrs. H. Montague Rogers won third, failing only at one jump. In the class for all comers, Mr. H. H. Laity’s Fisherman took first after exceedingly keen competition, the jumping being far above the average. The judge was Mr. B. Pethick, of Plymouth.
