On Wednesday evening another popular concert was given………

Hastings & St Leonards Observer, Saturday 16th January 1915

Mr. Ernest J Roberts conducting.  All the items were of a popular character.  A member of the 25th London Territorials, stationed at Bexhill, cyclist Bob Butler, a well-known London comedian, sang "Sister Susie Sewing Shirts for Soldiers" and "Water Scenes", both of which were vociferously encored.  A Charming mezz-soprano, Miss Katie Lidbetter, sang "Your King and Country Want You" and "The Women Who Stay at Home", being encored for both.
