Armistice Celebrated. Cambridge "let itself go"
Armistice Celebrated. Cambridge " let itself go" with full vigour on November 11th 1918 on receipt of the news that the Germans had accepted and signed the drastic armistice terms of the Allies, and the rejoicings were kept up on every evening throughout the week. The effigy of the Kaiser was hoisted on the point of a bayonet and carried through the streets, to be consigned to the flames of a Market Hill bonfire one evening. A cadet, attired as a padre, attended to the " obsequies". Later processions of cadets met on the Market Hill engaged in a Big Push. Premises occupied by the " Cambridge Magazine" at the corner of St. Johns Street were wrecked by a crowd. Two other shops in the same occupation were treated in similar fashion
