QUEEN VICTORIA
9 1 On the 20th June 1837
YEARS Queen Victoria con-
A G 0 menced her memorable
reign of sixty-four
years, the longest in British history.
At the time of her birth, on the
24th of May 1819, she stood fifth in
succession to the throne. In front
of her came the four eldest sons of
the reigning monarch, George III,
three of whom were her uncles and
one her own father. The three
'uncles, all of whom died without a
legitimate successor, were respective-
ly --.George, Prince of Wales, who
acted at Regent during George III's
insanity and succeeded hits as king
in 1820; Frederick, Duke of York,
who died in 1827; and William, Duke
of Clarence, who became King Wil-
liam IV in 1830; while her father,
Edward, Duke of Kent, died in 1820
when she Was only eight months old.
The major portion of her life prior
to her accession to the throne was
passed in quiet and uneventful se-
clusion at Kensington Palace in Lon-
don, where she was peacefully sleep-
ing in the early hours of the morn-
ing of the 20th June 1837 and was
aroused from her slumber to receive
the news that she hal succeeded to
her splendid heritage,.
King William IV passed away. at
2 o'clock in the morning at ,Windsor,

hop of Canterbury and the Lord

Chamberlain left the Castle to carry
the tidings to the new sovereign. At
that time there was no railroad be-
tween London and Windsor, and the
two dignitaries made the twenty
miles' journey in a carriage drawn
by four horses. Ic was 5 o'clock
when they reached Kensington Pal-
ace, where they experienced great
difficulty in arousing -the sleeping
household, and they were unable to
gain admittance until, their servant
had knocked and rang and thumped
and shouted for nearly a quarter of
an hour.
I Inside 'the Palace there was still

I ally appeared told, their lordships
that the Princess Victoria was in a
most sweet sleep and could not pos-

the Archbishop stated that he had
come to see the "Queen" on affairs
of State, which demanded that even
the sweetest of slumbers should bo

suaded of the necessity of arousing
her young mistress.
A few minutes later the new queen
appeared in the room where the Arch
bishop and Lord Chamberlain await-

hanging over shoulders, and attired
In a white night-gown and shawl, she,
