The farewell party given at Monte Carlo by Mr. Guy Weir Hogg, who is retiring, amid the regrets of the English colony, from the post of British Vice-Consul, was a very notable event which merits recording. It consisted of a theatrical programme in the theatre of the Palais des Beaux-Arts, and over two hundred guests spent a most enjoyable afternoon. The programme comprised a play of mediaeval Italy, "Borgia," by Claude Radcliffe; a dramatic little play by Mr. John Fortescue — who took part in it — entitled "The Ruling Vice," dealing with a gambling episode at Monte Carlo; a comedy duologue by [[Sir Arthur Conan Doyle]], "[[Confessions (play 1928)|Confessions]]," and some charming and very effective recitations in costume, both in English and French, by Miss Sybil Ruskin.
