The Landing of Lord Gough at Southampton, 1850. 'The gallant hero of Gwalior and Chillianwallah, accompanied by Lady Gough and suite, arrived at Southampton [from India] on Sunday last, by the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company's ship Indus, from Alexandria. The arrival of the ship having become generally known some time before she got into dock, a very large number of spectators assembled to give the noble and gallant Lord a welcome; and when the steamer arrived alongside the platform, his Lordship was very loudly cheered by the populace, an ovation which was courteously acknowledged by the gallant veteran from the paddle-box...Lord Gough is looking remarkably well, and, with the exception that his hair and whiskers have become quite white, he looks little the worse for the thirteen years' hard service he has undergone in the East'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850.
