After a liberal luncheon, provided before the sale, an
announcement was made that all 25 Norfolk lots could be combined as one and purchased
for the amount required, £28,000 to £30,000.
A gentleman then rose and offered the higher amount which, after about
two minutes consideration, was knocked down to Messrs. Youngs,
Crawshay & Co., much to the sore disappointment of many intending
purchasers present from all parts of the district and beyond.
