Col. Reid, M. P. for Windsor, 1845. Creator: Unknown

Col. Reid, M.P. for Windsor, 1845. Portrait of George Alexander Reid, Esq. of Bulstrode Park, Bucks...a Colonel in the Army, at present commanding the 2nd Regiment of Life Guards, the Household troops stationed at Windsor, and is the successful candidate for the representation of that borough...The Hon. and Gallant Member may be described as a Conservative, " seeing nothing at all objectionable in the spirit" of the New Poor- law, supporting the Ministry, but reserving a right to form his own judgment as to their measures. As the Household troops are exempted from the operation of the act requiring soldiers to be withdrawn from towns during an election, some collision took place between the men of Col. Reids regiment and the inhabitants, which, though producing no serious result, has been made the subject of some discussion. From " Illustrated London News", 1845, Vol VII
