In the evening [after the arrival of Governor Tryon and his
lady], there was a very elegant ball, in the Great Ball-Room
in the Court house, where were present his honour the
Governor, and his lady, the Mayor, Mr. Reardon, and near 100
gentlemen and ladies.  --About ten in the evening the
company withdrew to the Long room over the Ball-Room, where
was spread a very elegant collation:  After supper, the
gentlemen and ladies returned to the Ball-Room, and
concluded the evening with all imaginable agreeableness and
satisfaction.  The Courthouse was beautifully illuminated
the whole evening.
