The Hon. Artillery Company's Ball: arrival of the Prince and Princess of Wales, 1870. 'The ball given by the Hon. Artillery Company of London, in honour of the Prince and Princess of Wales, on Wednesday week, was a splendid entertainment. The Armoury House...was fitted up and decorated for this festive occasion...To the left of the hall was stationed the regimental band, which played during the evening...the old colours of the company were suspended...with flags and banners of modern times...The entrance of the Prince and Princess was the signal for the regimental band to strike up "God Save the Queen." Their Royal Highnesses were attended by the Marchioness of Carmarthen, the Marquis of Hamilton, and Colonel Keppel...The Prince of Wales [future King Edward VII] wore the uniform of Colonel and Captain-General of the Honourable Artillery Company and the blue ribbon and star of the Order of the Garter. The Princess [future Queen Alexandra] wore a light blue tulle dress, looped up with flowers, and covered with Brussels lace, with a tiara and necklace of blue velvet and diamonds.
