Reception of Lord Gough at Calcutta, 1850. Creator: Unknown
Reception of Lord Gough at Calcutta, 1850. Loud Gough arrived at Calcutta [modern Kolkata, India] on the 29th of December, in the State yacht Soonamooky...It had been intimated that the ex-chief wished to be received as quietly as possible; accordingly no public demonstration was made, beyond having the garrison out on his Lordship's landing, besides a pretty mark of welcome at the Peninsula and Oriental Company's Depot...'. View of...the State yacht passing the Depot, under a salute of seventeen guns; with the Haddington, and the fine ship Agincourt, lying at one of the Peninsula and Oriental Company's wharves discharging stores. His Lordship, we are informed, was much pleased with this greeting, and acknowledged it by standing on the deck of the yacht uncovered, and bowing repeatedly to the three hearty cheers of the Haddington's sailors'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850
