Kai Tiaki : the journal of the nurses of New Zealand, Volume III, Issue 3, 1 July 1910, Page 110

' The late King had no more devoted subjects than the trained nurses of the Kingdom, and many hundreds took their places in the crowd to give expression, for the last time, to their loyalty to the dead Sovereign ; and many also visited Westminster Hall during the Lying-in-State, when special facilities were given them to obtain access to the Hall by way of Palace Yard. This thoughtfulness for a busy section of workers, was greatly appreciated by the trained nurses, and numbers availed themselves of the privilege thus extended. Amongst the thousands of wreaths sent to Windsor, many beautiful ones were sent by

hospital nurses and nursing associations, and it will be gratifying to them to know that the names of the senders will be copied, and bound up into a special volume, and the thanks of the Queen Mother will be extended to all. — British Journal of Nursing." ****** " vSt. George's Chapel, Windsor, where King Edward VII was laid to rest, is intimately connected with the history of the dead King ; for to this Chapel he was carried for his baptism, and at its altar rails he awaited his bride."—" British Journal of Nursing."
