The guards, resplendent in scar let tunlcs and bearskin hats. marched and counter-marched in full military pageantry. The Queen, also in scarlet tunic and wearing a white-plumed trlcorn hat. rode her favorite charger Win- ston during the spectacular 90-min- ute ceremony. A crowd of 5,000 looked on.
