Opening of the North-East London Exhibition of Arts and Manufactures at the Agricultural Hall, 1865. Creator: Unknown
Opening of the North-East London Exhibition of Arts and Manufactures at the Agricultural Hall, 1865. 'The Hundredth Psalm was most effectively sung by the choir...The chairman of the committee, Mr. George King, then invited the distinguished personages, the Sheriffs of London and Middlesex, Archdeacon Hale, and others, to inspect the exhibition, during which operatic selections from "The Prophet" were played by the band of the Honourable Artillery Company. On the return of the procession to the platform the Lord Mayor made a few appropriate remarks, and called upon the Lord Chancellor to declare the exhibition open. The Ven. Archdeacon Hale offered up a special prayer for the Divine blessing upon the undertaking. The Chorale composed by his late Royal Highness the Prince Consort was sung by the choir. At its conclusion an address was given by the Lord Chancellor. The "Hallelujah Chorus" was then sung, and the Marquis of Salisbury, K.G., presented the cordial thanks of the committee and exhibitors to the Lord Chancellor and the Lord Mayor. The proceedings terminated with the singing of the National Anthem by the whole company. The exhibition is well worthy of a visit, especially for its Fine-Arts Department'. From "Illustrated London News", 1865
