Of child to her majesty. who was
married to Prince Henry, of Mecklen-
burg Schwerin, Feb. z, 1901.
The first person outside the royal
palace to hear the news was a party
of workmen passing the residence of
the queen on their way to work. The
cheers they raised we're the signal for
the general rejoicings. Flags and
bunting that had been held in readi-
ness were unfurled, and the city took
on holiday attire.
Heralds. accompanied by trumpet
ers. clad in ancient Dutch dress, made
the rounds of the city, hating at the
principal squares and other suitable
spots to make, after due fanfares, the
following proclamation:
Fellow Citizens-With great joy we
announce the news that her majesty,
by the grace of God has been deliv-
cred of princess.
'"The entire population of The Hague
shares the feelings of deep joy of the
Dutch people, and is thankful for the
blessing bestowed upon the royal
house and upon the country May the
happy event strengthen the bonds
uniting the Netherlands and the House
of Orange. Long live the queen. Long
live the Princess of Orange"
