| Description : | This is a brown leather bound book. The front cover of the book has the title imprinted in gold letters: "MISS E. L. CLENCH/ FROM THE CITIZENS/ OF ST. MARYS ONT." Around the edge of the front cover are the imprint of twenty-four flowers of two different designs. The back cover is completely blank. The book has five pages, containing the text of an address from the Town of St. Marys Citizens to Nora Clench. The pages have gilt on the edge. |
| Fonctions : | The people of St. Marys were very proud of Nora Clench and her accomplishments. When she returned from her long period of study in Leipzig, Germany, there was a grand reception for her in the St. Marys Opera House. Dr. J. H. Mathieson, a family friend, was the chairman of the Reception Committee. He read an address of appreciation and presented a leather-bound copy of the text to the young musician. The Reception Committee had commissioned A. H. Howard, a member of the Royal Canadian Academy, to design and decorate the pages of the text. |
