The opening of the Hartley Institution at Southampton by Lord Palmerston: arrival of His Lordship at the Institution, 1862. A large body of the inhabitants...assembled...to welcome his Lordship [the British prime minister], who was greeted with the warmest enthusiasm. The approach of the carriage of the noble Lord was the signal for vociferous cheering, while the band of the Coldstream Guards, of her Majesty's ship Boscawen, of the Volunteer Artillery Corps, of the Foresters, Royal Marines, Odd Fellows, and Hants Yeomanry, struck up a lively strain...The bells of the different churches were also rung, and the arrival of his Lordship at the institution...was the signal for a salvo of artillery...The Hartley Institution has been established in pursuance of a most liberal bequest for that purpose by a native of Southampton - Henry Robinson Hartley, who left the whole of his property to the Corporation of the borough to promote the study and the advancement of the sciences of natural history, astronomy, antiquities, and classical and Oriental literature in the town of Southampton, and the amount, with the interest which accumulated during a litigation which subsequently ensued, reached £100, 000'.
