Framed Print of Arrival, and Subsequent Death, of Lady Carter at Lagos: Lady Carter landing at Lagos, 1895. Creator: George Meisenbach
Arrival, and Subsequent Death, of Lady Carter at Lagos: Lady Carter landing at Lagos, 1895. Following with sad speed the news of the reception accorded to the wife of the Governor on her arrival at Lagos has come the news that Lady Carter died on Jan. 13. The event has cast a gloom over the entire colony, which had but a few days before welcomed her with enthusiasm...In the harbour her Majesty's Colonial yacht Margaret and all the mercantile steamers were decked with flags, and carried palm branches on their mastheads...two guns announced that the steam-tender Kwarra had started from the Axim with her Ladyship on board. Eighteen hundred school-children sang "Rule, Britannia" on the landing-stage as soon as his Excellency appeared escorting his wife from the steamer...A ball was given in her Ladyship's honour on Dec. 21, and five days later she was taken ill. Sympathy must be extended towards the Governor of Lagos in his sudden bereavement, and towards the West African colony which mourns the loss of its chief leader of society. Sir Gilbert T. Carter, K.C.M.G. has been Governor and Commander-in-Chief of Lagos since 1891. Lady Carter, whom he married in 1874, was Miss Susan Laura Hocker, daughter of Lieutenant-Colonel Edward Hocker, C.B.
