Scope and Content

A leaflet containing a menu for a dinner held by the officers of the 14th Bn., The Royal Montreal Regiment, in the fall of 1915. The front cover has a drawing in blue ink of two officers singing while holding between them a sheet containing several bars of music and words for a song. Inside is the dinner menu, again printed in blue ink. The back cover has the autographs of the officers attending the dinner, and there is also one signature on the bottom of the front cover. It was a common practice at the time for friends and acquaintances attending such functions to autograph each others menus which they would take away as souvenirs.
