Evening Republican, Volume 15, Number 50, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 28 February 1911 — Queen Mary’s Trousseau. [ARTICLE]

Queen Mary’s Trousseau.

Queen Mary is following the example set by her mother, the duchess of Teck, who at the time of her daughter's wedding with the present king declared that for the trousseau “not a yard of cambric or linen, of flannel or tweed, of lace or ribbon should be bought outside the kingdom,” and who kept to her word. Queen Mary is having her coronation robes and gowns for court functions as well as the opening of parliament gown made by a British firm of all British material. She has ordered eight dresses so far, and work on them has commenced.— London correspondence Ne;w York Sun.
