The Last to Leave.
On Friday the 7th instant, after the audience had departed from the new picture theatre, an old gentleman was noticed to remain in his seat. It was thought he had gone to sleep, but Mr. Johnson, the manager, failed to arouse him. Failing to get any satisfaction or sense from the old gentleman, Mr. Johnson after applying first- aid remedies, took him to the Melbourne Hospital in a St. John's ambulance, where he was treated by Dr. Meade, who applied the electric battery. On returning to Port Melbourne during the early morning Sergeant Nugent recognised the old gentleman as Mr. Wm. Decis, residing at 274 Graham street. Decis, who is 83 years of age, on being conveyed to his residence, pulled around again.
