    "Margaret Bevan" in first paragraph should read Margaret Beavan.

    Lucia Marion Welch, Mayor of Southampton.

    Margaret Jane Jenkins, Mayor of Tenby.

    Grace Emma Cottrell, Mayor of West Bromwich.

    Miss Alice Hudson, Mayor of Eastbourne.

    Kath Duncan, Mayor of Deptford.

    Mrs Milly Edwards-Jones, Mayor of Wrexham.
