4 June at Eton: A Tradition of Friendship and Privilege This evocative photograph captures the essence of a cherished Eton College tradition as five schoolboys celebrate King George III's birthday on 4 June, 1908. Seated on a stone wall, they embody the spirit of camaraderie, privilege, and history that has long been associated with this esteemed institution. From left to right, we find J. Straker (Keeper of the Field), S. Menzies (Master of the Beagles), W.G. Trower (Keeper of the Mixed Wall), C.G. Forbes-Adams (Member of the Sixth Form), and Garton (Member of the Eight). Dressed in smart suits and top hats, they exude an air of refinement and elegance, reflecting the private and privileged education they were receiving. The date of 4 June holds great significance at Eton, marking the annual celebration of King George III's birthday with speeches, cricket games, and a boat procession. These traditions, deeply rooted in the school's history, serve to strengthen the bonds of friendship among the students. As J. Straker pays homage to the field, S. Menzies looks on with pride as Master of the Beagles, W.G. Trower reminisces by the mixed wall, C.G. Forbes-Adams contemplates from the Sixth Form, and Garton reflects on his place in the Eight, these young men embody the enduring spirit of Eton College. This photograph, with its timeless charm and historical significance, invites us to explore the rich tapestry of customs and friendships that have shaped the lives of generations of Etonians.
