1907 | 9 Dec. ‘On Saturday, the employees of Messrs Price, Powell and Company, of the Stoneware Potteries, together with their wives, about 130 in all, were entertained at Chivers’s Restaurant, and the opportunity was taken to present Mr and Mrs John Harold Price with wedding gifts, consisting of a tea and coffee service, autograph book, and illuminated address from the employees, and a lovely bouquet from their wives. Mr Alfred N. Price presided, supported by Mr S. Newell Price, Mr Arthur Newell Price, Dr Leonard, and other members of the family. When the tables had been cleared, the Chairman offered a few words of greeting and reminiscences. Mr Harry French (representative), in suitable terms, presented the address on behalf of the employees generally, and was supported by Messrs Arthur Ray, Frederick Parsons, and J. Woodrow, foremen of the various departments. In acknowledging the presentation, Mr Price, who was received with great applause, said he hardly knew how to thank them for all that had been so admirably expressed by those who had spoken on their behalf. Both he and his wife had received a great many and costly presents, but if all that had been said was really meant, he would value that presentation more than anything else he had ever received. He referred to the assistance he had always received from the heads of the various departments, and hoped they would not forget the advice his father had given them, and continue to exercise their intelligence with their business, and so keep up the reputation of the firm … The rest of the evening was spent in the enjoyment of songs and instrumental music, in which the bride and bridegroom took their share, and a hearty vote of thanks to the firm concluded a most enjoyable evening’ (Western Daily Press). |
