A remarkable improvement that is duly recorded here, to the honor of royal Scotland, the Queen, and all Saint Andrews' Guild. At Royal Winter Feast on Saturday, November 11, the last Trooping of the Royal Guard took place. Upon this occasion all the gentlemen of the Regiment received their annual pay of one Crown, and those with no red hackle feather received that accolade. Swearing in ceremonies were held for those Halber- diers not yet sworn in, and regimental crosses given.
Faire season is set.
Your continued great participation is the very hope and desire of Her Royal Majesty the Queen. Please be ever assured of her concern for attendance improvement from each of the Royal Guards. For your attendance upon the Queen at all of our events, reflects more than any- thing or anyone, true devotion and continued support for the Royal Family of Scotland. It was sickening in years past to see the Queen in pro- gress with only five Royal Guards at Her side. If you now take a moment to look upon your attendance record and reflect how wondrously you did come forth to serve the Queen at the events she was present and expected your duty with Her, then it is exceedingly clear, how your dedication has blossomed and you are worthy of the Regiment to which you have sworn your allegiance and loyalty.
