'In aid of the fund required to establish a Convalescent Home for poor women after childbirth, which her Royal Highness Princess Frederica of Hanover, Baroness von Pawel-Rammingen, proposes to erect at Hampton Court, a performance of amateur theatricals and music, by permission of her Majesty the Queen, took place on Friday week in the ancient hall of Hampton Court Palace. The audience consisted of about six hundred ladies and gentleman, including many persons of rank and fashion...The first part of the programme consisted of the overture to Rossini's "Semi-ramide," and "Carmen," by the band; and the well-known dramatic sketch entitled "Yellow Roses," by Sir Charles Young, Bart., in which the author himself took the part of Colonel St. Clair, and Lady Monckton that of Mrs. Peveril. These two amateurs played their parts with éclat, and one of the scenes between them is shown in our Illustration'. From "Illustrated London News", 1881.
