The Schleswig-Holstein Difficulty: the Danish Soldiers at Altona..., 1864. Creator: Unknown
The Schleswig-Holstein Difficulty: the Danish Soldiers at Altona waiting for news of the arrival of the federal troops to quit the principal guardhouse, 1864. 'Correspondence from the duchies is unanimous in describing the [federal] execution [ie regime change] as having taken place without any disturbance of public order. An hour before the federal troops arrived at the different towns the Danish forces marched out; and, except for the differences of the uniforms, one would imagine that regiments were being relieved in the ordinary course of military duty. On the departure of the Danish troops Prince Frederick was proclaimed in most of the towns Duke of Schleswig-Holstein; the arms of Denmark were quietly taken down from the post-offices and customhouses, and the tricolor flag hoisted in their place...On the 24th December the Saxons entered, with their band playing "Schleswig-Holstein, Sea-surrounded," through the Nobis Thor to the Townhall, and relieved there the Danish guard, and were at once received with great demonstrations of welcome'. From "Illustrated London News", 1864
