Defeat of the reform bill of 1881 by

stones and only escaped by drawing
his pistol. setting spurs to his horse

him. The kings brother, the Duke

for not only was he stoned but he was
dragged from his horse and probably
would have been torn to pieces II he
had not been rescued by the police.
Such was the feeling Of the public at
large against the enemies of reform
that when the mail coach brought the
report to Perth that the Duke Of Cum.
berland and the Duke Of Wellington
had been shot, 1t was received with
ringing cheers by the Inhabitants, who
applied to the authorities for permis-

ended the crowd that had gathered in
St. James park attacked the houses
Of the Earl Of Dudley, the Marquis OF
Bristol and the Duke Of Wellington,
leaving them without a pane of glass.
During the remainder of his life the
latter refused to have his windows
mended and for years the sight OF
smashed glass In Apsley House proved
. reminder of this reign of terror. 1t
was protected from further possible
violence by heavy iron shutters fas-
