Reception of Princess Louise at Inverary Castle, [in Scotland], 1871. 'The reception of the Queen's daughter, Princess Louise and Marchioness of Lorne, the wife of the Duke of Argyll's eldest son and heir, when she was first "brought home" by her husband, the Marquis of Lorne, to his father's house at Inverary, has been an event of much interest...A select company, with the Duke's family and household servants, was assembled in the entrance-hall - a light iron and glass structure, which was adorned with ferns, shrubs, and flowering plants. The Duke's men, wearing a picturesque livery, and bearing Lochaber axes, were in attendance. When the Princess, wrapped in a shawl of Clan Campbell tartan, with a silver brooch to fasten it, alighted with her lord from the carriage and went up the steps, received by the Duke of Argyll, there was a hearty outburst of kind feeling, to which the Marquis replied with a few words of thanks, turning back from the steps to address the crowd. The Duchess of Argyll, with several of her sons and daughters, the Rev. Mr. Story, of Roseneath, and the Rev. Dr. Norman Macleod, were with the Duke'. From "Illustrated London News", 1871.
