Mr.. Johnston expressed his individual opinions

was summarily removed by the President. Inc
majority dwell particularly on the advance

1919. and therefore when Princess
now Queen-Victoria was exactly z
months old, bears upon the point raised
THE Duke of Kent gave the name of
Alexandrina to his daughter in com
pliment to the emperor of Russia
She was to have had the name of Georg-
Jana, but the duke insisted upon Alex
andrina being her first name. The re-
gent sent for Lieven, the Russian en-
bassador, and made him great many
compliments-en 10 pcrsiflant-on the
emperor being godfather, but inform
ed him that tho name of Georgiana
could be second to no other in this coun-
try. and therefore she could not bear it
at all !"
1t was accordingly as Alexandrina
Victoria that tho infant princess WAS
baptized on Juno 81, 1910. Notes aud
