MEMORIAL TABLET..
•
Last week the ceremony of unveiling a memorial tablet to King Edward took place at the English church at Homburg in the
of the Kaiser. The little presonco building was crowded to overdowing, and the English Bishop Bury oficiated, assisted by the Chaplain, His Majesty, who wore the uniform of a British admiral, was accom- panied by his sisters, the Crown Princess of Greeca and Frincess Friedrich Karl of Hesse. The English Ambassador (Sir Ed. ward Goschen) and the former Ambassador (Sir Frank Lascallcg) were also present. The Imperial vintors wore received by the" Bishop at the untrance to the church, and after the coremony. His Majesty talked with his Lordship some time. The tablet is a similar oue to that arccted by the Britial visitors at Homburg to the memory of the Empress Frederick. It is of light gray marble with the relief of the King in bronze, and an inscription in gold lettering, At Friedrichshof Castle, the residence of Prince and Princess Friedrich Karl, where His Majesty was staying, there was a Inge Junghoon-party, which included the Bishop' bad many English visitors."
