have undertaken, by a conviction and grateful sense that the sympathy of the entire 
nation accompanies me. 4 А i 
I have SUP the pleasure of directing that this Memorial (of which the artist may 
well be proud) be uncovered. 
His Royal Highness then ordered the uncovering of the Memorial. А 
flourish of trumpets and a salute of artillery from а battery placed in the 
Park by permission of His Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, the 
Ranger, announced the fact. The fountains began to play, and the united 
bands of the Guards played a triumphal march. 
The procession then descended from the balcony, and entered the Garden 
through the centre arch of the entrance from the Exhibition Building. It 
proceeded round the Garden, pausing for a short time on each side of the 
Memorial, and also in front on a platform erected on the south side of the 
large basin. They also passed through the conservatory, and, returning 
down the east side of the Garden, left it by the entrance in Exhibition 
- Road 
Throughout their entire progress, the procession was accompanied by 
music, six military bands being stationed in various parts of the Garden; 
so that no sooner did the Royal party pass out of the hearing of one band, 
than the strain was taken up by another. 
The music gave much satisfaction. The bands that were present 
were those of the Coldstream Guards, the Grenadier Guards, the Scots 
Fusilier Guards, the 2nd Life Guards, the Royal Engineers, and the Royal 
Marines, and they performed for a long time, both before and after the 
ceremony, not leaving off until seven at night, -
