in Y Gelli Gandryll - 22 February, 1871
from Diary of Francis Kilvert, 27 Feb. 1871, page 111:
I hear the Rifle Volunteer Corps Concert at Hay last Wednesday was moderately successful. In the middle of the performance the Rile Corps band played 'Vital spark', and a man named Clement skated round the platform upon wheel skates, and fell off into the front row of ladies.
