Inspection of the City of London Militia, 1858. Creator: Unknown
Inspection of the City of London Militia, 1858....the Royal London Militia (the whole of the regiment having attended Divine service at St. Paul's Cathedral the previous day) was inspected by Colonel Douglas, Military Inspector, of the Horse Guards...The men then marched past the reviewing officer in open and quarter-distance column and subsequently they went through the ordinary manoeuvres of manual platoon exercise under the command of the Major, and a series of battalion movements superintended by Lieutenant-Colonel MacCall. The inspection lasted nearly two hours, and at its close Colonel Douglas addressed the men, highly complimenting them upon the manner in which they had gone through the exercises of the day. He further said that he had received from Colonel Wilson and their superior officers generally a high character of them as to their good and soldierly conduct, which he hoped they would continue to maintain both as soldiers and as men'. From "Illustrated London News", 1858
