Framed Print of Ensign Humphry, Cambridge University Rifle Corps, winner of the Queen's Prize at Wimbledon, 1871. Creator: Unknown
Ensign Humphry, Cambridge University Rifle Corps, winner of the Queen's Prize at Wimbledon, 1871. Engraving from a photograph by Herbert Watkins of the winner...of the Queen's prize, £250, with the gold medal and badge, and the honours of the reputed championship for the United Kingdom...In the second stage of the contest, which is decided by shooting at the ranges, successively, of 800 yards, 900 yards, and 1000 yards, seven shots at each range, with the Martini-Henry rifle, the best marksman, Mr. Alfred Paget Humphry, made a score of 68 points. Mr. A. P. Humphry, who is twenty years of age, is an undergraduate of Trinity College...He was at Rugby before entering the University, and took his place as one of the Rugby team, on three occasions, in the Public Schools rifle-shooting for the Ashburton challenge shield. In 1868 he made the highest score any one person made in that Public Schools contest. This year, besides winning the Queen's prize for himself, he has led the Cambridgeshire men to victory in the shooting for the China challenge cup. On Saturday evening, when he returned home, he was received at the Cambridge railway station by the members of the University and town volunteer corps, assembled, with their bands of music'.
