PLACED AT LAST ON THE HEAD
OF THE RULER
EDWARD BEARS UP GRANDLY
After Coronation Experiences but Lit
tle Fatigue Attends Religious Serv
ices with the Queen A Grand Gala
Time
LONDON Aug 11 The king was
crowned at 12 oclock on Saturday
The news of the crowning was an
nounced by an official outside the ab
bey It was repeated by signal
through London and was received with
cheers which spread throughout the
stands and crowds far up the street
as the bells peeled joyfully The queen
was crowned at 1256 p m
Yesterday Sunday the festivities
were continued in London There
were considerable crowds almost all
day long in the vicinity of Bucking
ham palace and along the route of
yesterdays procession viewing the dec
orations and watching the flow of no
table personages to and from the vari
ous thanksgiving services
In the evening the Canadian arch
which is an exceptional novelty for
Sunday was brilliantly illuminated
and was a great center of attraction
and served to bring an immense con
course of people into the neighborhood
In spite of the welcome announcement
made last night that King Edward had
borne the fatigues of coronation day
well todays bulletin concerning his
health was awaited with a certain de
gree of anxiety Perhaps this is the
reason that his majestys physicians
issued the bulletin at the rather un
usually early hour of 930 oclock Be
cause of the early hour very few people
were about when it was posted at
the gates of the palace The bulletin
is as follows
His majesty bore the strain of the
coronation ceremony perfectly well
and experienced but little fatigue The
king had a good night and his condi
tion is in every way satisfactory No
further bulletin will be issued
Signed TREVES
LAKING
After the posting of the bulletin
there was still some doubt as to
whether his majesty would drive out
but the small crowd that remained at
Buckingham palace hopeful to see the
sovereign was rewarded by the ap
pearance of the king and queen They
were accompanied by Princess Vic-
toria Prince Charles of Denmark
Prince and Princess Henry of Prussia
and the crown prince of Denmark and
were attended by a large following of
the royal household
The procession drove along the Mall
and St James palace without receiv
ing any notable demonstration from
the people Tickets to the chapel royal
had been sparingly granted The choir
boys who took part in the service
in the chapel were clad in quaint
gowns of crimson and gold lace The
service was very simple special pray
ers for the occasion however were
read
An almost identical service to the
one held at the chapel royal of St
James was conducted at Marlborough
house chapel and attended by the
prince of Wales and his family and
other royal personages
The most interesting of all the ser
vices was held at St Pauls This
was essentially a peoples service in
gratitude and thankfulness that the
sovereign had been restored to his
health and it presented a striking con
trast to the sad service of supplica
tion held there in June on the day
the coronation should have taken
place
