Queen Victoria is said to have a
long memory for persons and faces.
Her whole thoughts now seem CEN
tered in her soldiers, especiallyi in
those who have been wounded in
her service, and in looking over
paintings of subjects in the recent
wars she knows and remembers the
names of all those soldiers-even
privates-on whom she has con-
ferred the Victoria Cross or other
honors, at once picking them out in
the painting and asking after them
by name.
