Evans which will be given at Libanus Baptist Chapel, Treherbert, on THURSDAY & SATURDAY, Feb. 24th and 26th, 1910. • If the manner in which the Choir has acquitted itself in the Full Practices is in any measure an index to the success of the Performances, the ticket-holders may rest assured that their speculation will be well repaid.
