The star of the garter, which kept flashing out from the continual extinguishment of the wind and rain, V and A, in capital letters of light, were repeated a hundred times; as were loyal and patriotic mottoes, crowns formed by colored lamps. In some instances a sensible tradesman had illuminated his own sign, thereby at once advertising his loyalty and his business.
At the same moment a very heavy shower arose, which aided greatly in the extinguishment of the flames.
