The Prince of Wales in India: Chapter of the Star of India at Allahabad, from a sketch by one of our special artists, 1876. The future King Edward VII '...held a Chapter of the Star of India, when Major-Generals Browne and Probyn and Dr. Fayrer were invested with the rank of Knight Commander; and Colonels Michael, Earle, and Ellis, Captains Glyn and Baring, and Majors Henderson and Bradford, with the rank of Companions of this order. The ceremony passed off well, but was comparatively private, being held at Government House'. From "Illustrated London News", 1876.
