QUEEN AS BARRISTER
LONDON, Dec. 12.
The Queen on Tuesday night was admitted as a student of the Middle Temple, was called to the Bar, and was made a Bencher of the Inn, all within ten minutes, after which she had dinner with the Benchers. She is the first woman Bencher of the Middle Temple, but is not the first woman Bencher, for Queen Mary became a Bencher of Lincoln’s Inn last year, though she was not present when she was called, owing to the war. The first Queen Elizabeth, four hundred years ago, was S’ frequent visitor to the Middle Temple, but she was not a Bencher.
