Her Majesty’s Diamond Jubilee

“A never to be forgotten day,” was how the queen described the ceremonies marking her 60 years on the throne. “No one ever, I believe, has met with such an ovation as was given to me, passing through those six miles of streets. . . . The crowds were quite indescribable and their enthusiasm truly marvellous and deeply touching. The cheering was quite deafening, and every face seemed to be filled with real joy.”
