The Movers and Seconders of the Address in the Lords and Commons: the Earl of Rosebery, 1871. 'The Right Hon. Archibald Philip Primrose, fifth Earl of Rosebery, Baron Dalmeny in the Peerage of Scotland, and Baron Rosebery in the Peerage of the United Kingdom, and a Baronet...is unmarried; and his brother, the Hon. Everard Primrose, an officer in the Grenadier Guards, is presumptive heir to the title. Having been selected by the Prime Minister to second the Address in the House of Lords in answer to the Speech from the Throne, it is to be assumed that Lord Rosebery is a Liberal in politics; and, being so, it may be taken that he has arrived at the adoption of his opinions, as it were, by gradation; for his grandfather was a Conservative, and his father a Peelite. Dressed in the handsome uniform of an Archer of the Scottish Guard, his Lordship looked well as he stood the central figure of the House when seconding the Address - a duty which he performed with something more than credit, his speech being well composed, and delivered with a certain fluency and almost ease'. From "Illustrated London News", 1871.
