Queen writes in her journal at Balmoral, Oct. 13, 1856
Every year my heart becomes more fixed in this dear
Paradise, and so much more so now that all has become
my dearest Albert's own creation, own work, own build-
ing, own laying out, as at Osborne, that his great taste
and the impress of his dear band have been stamped every.
