Wit and Wisdom of Lord Tredegar

THE PENNY WHISTLE OF REPUBLICANISM.

Reading edition

There never was a time when the country was more loyal. The penny whistle of republicanism which tried to blow its notes some time ago has, I believe, burst itself, for it found no sympathetic echo in the heart of the nation. I believe there is no harder worked man in the United Kingdom than the Prince of Wales. From morning to night he is at the beck and call of somebody or other, and we always find him ready to respond to the calls made upon him.

Tredegar Show, December 16th, 1875.
