IN MEMORY OF CHARLES I.
SCOTS GUARDS' BUGLES.
LONDON, January 31.
Surprise was caused by Scots Pipers playing a lament and the Scots Guards sounding "The Last Post" in the course of a service yesterday in Trafalgar Square in memory of King Charles 1. it i= recalled that two years ago, when the buglers of the Grenadier Guards sounded. "The Last Post," Mr. Stephen Walsh, who was then Secretary of \Var, said a mistake had been made in allowing the Army to participate in the service, and there would be no repetition of the incident.
Colonel Ross, commanding the battalion of the Scots Guards from which the party was detailed,-said he had no knowledge of the matter. It was clear the application had been received for the Scots Guards to take part in the service during the command of his predecessor. lA. and N.Z. Cable.)
