HC Deb 10 February 1871 vol 204 c146

Message from Her Majesty brought up, and read by Mr. Speaker (all the Members being uncovered), as follows:—

VICTORIA R.

Her Majesty relies upon the cordial interest which Her faithful Commons have expressed in the approaching marriage between the Princess Louise and the Marquis of Lorne.

The numerous proofs which the Queen has received of their loyalty to Her Throne, and of their attachment to Her person and Family, lead Her to hope that they will make such a provision for the Princess Louise, with a view to the proposed marriage, as may be suitable to the dignity of the Crown.

V.R.

Committee thereupon upon Monday next.
