Tercentenary Anniversary of King's School, Sherborne, [Dorset], 1850. '...the gathering [was] very large, owing as well to the anxiety of all old Sherbornians...to meet their old schoolfellows...a procession was formed, headed by the beadles, followed by the Governors of the School, the boys and masters, and some two or three hundred ladies and gentlemen...an address was delivered by the present Head Master, the Rev. H. D. Harper...tracing, at considerable length, the rise and progress of the School, from its foundation to the present time, and claiming a great number of celebrated men...as having been educated at the School...Some of the party had been at the School before the beginning of the present century, and had travelled long distances to attend on the occasion'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850.
