The Scots Greys leaving Nottingham for the War in the East, 1854. Creator: Unknown

The Scots Greys leaving Nottingham for the War in the East, 1854. British troops leaving for the Crimean War: The Mayor...having arranged to bid the troops a public farewell...the Corporation assembled at the Exchange...The streets were lined with spectators, eager to pay the tribute of respect and good wishes to the brave fellows...The ancient "loving- cup" of the Corporation was then produced, and having been filled with wine, the Mayor (J. Reckless, Esq) addressed the Colonel and his officers, intimating the public sense of the good conduct of the regiment, and proposing the health of the Queen, which was drunk with great enthusiasm. The Colonel and other officers, and the municipal procession, having drunk from the cup, it was replenished...the Mayor...heartily drank to the health of Colonel Griffith, his officers, and men, and success and prosperity to the Scots Greys (Tremendous cheers)'. From "Illustrated London News", 1854
