27 June 1887 – 3 July 1887

Visitors. Miss Wolseley told us that Lady Wolseley and she, on 2 1 st, breakfasted at six o'clock in the morning and sat in the Abbey till 4 p.m., without any food but some bits of chocolate. Lady W. could not see the Queen on the dais, only in passing up the aisle. Both (Lady and Miss W.) were knocked up. Lord W. also knocked up — against a wall by his horse, at Gloster House, when going to call for the Duke of C, hurt his bad leg, believed it to be broken^ but rode to Buckingham Palace and in the Procession as per programme ; anxious about alighting at the Abbey — did alight, found his leg not broken and able to carry him to his seat.
