Description CHILDREN'S VOICES: A SCENE AT NORWICH. It was wise and well that children should be given a due place in all the Jubilee celebrations. The youngest of them is scarcely likely to see such an occasion again in the course of the longest life, and the great doings of June, 1897, will doubtless be remembered by many a grey-head sixty or seventy years hence as a unique and wonderful experience. Here, in the market-place of the ancient and famous city of Norwich, 10,000 boys and girls are gathered together to sing the festive and patriotic songs appropriate to the day, and to unite with heart and voice in the great chorus of the National Anthem. Over the roofs of the neighbouring houses is seen the long nave and the base of the tower of St. Peter Mancroft Church, the Parish Church. The city of Norwich itself, at one time second in importance to London only, still retains a marked individuality, which its isolated position in the east of England helps to maintain.
