HL Deb 21 March 1882 vol 267 c1417

Delivered by The Earl GRANVILLE, and read by The LORD CHANCELLOR, as follows:

Her Majesty relies upon the cordial interest which the House of Lords have expressed in the approaching marriage of Prince Leopold, Duke of Albany, to Princess Helen of Waldeck and Pyrmont:

The proofs which the Queen has never failed to receive of their loyalty to Her Throne and of their attachment to Her Person and Family, lead Her to believe that they will upon this happy occasion make such a provision for Prince Leopold as may be suitable to the dignity of the Crown.

EARL GRANVILLE

My Lords, I beg to give Notice that on Thursday I shall move that Her Majesty's gracious Message be taken into consideration by this House.

THE MARQUESS OF SALISBURY

Before the Orders of the Day?

EARL GRANVILLE

Yes; before the Orders of the Day.

House adjourned at a quarter past Five o'clock, to Thursday next, half past Ten o'clock.
