Pop
#1
Can anybody help me with the meaning of the above word as used in Bram Stoker's 'Dracula?'?  It occurs at the beginning of chapter V, in the first letter sent by Lucy Westenra to Mina Murray, and the context is as follows:

" As to the tall, curly-haired man, I suppose it was the one who was with me at the last Pop.  Someone has evidently been telling tales.  That was Mr. Holmwood."

The word is capitalised in the original.  I have no idea why this should be so, or what it would have meant in 1897.  Any ideas?
