Dean Stanley Memorial Meeting in the Chapter House, Westminster Abbey, 1881. 'The meeting, on Tuesday week, in the Chapter-house of Westminster Abbey, at which the Prince of Wales was the leading speaker, to give a permanent form to the expression of public esteem and regret upon the death of the late Dean, is the subject of one of our Illustrations. The new Dean, the Very Rev. Dr. Bradley, presided at this meeting, and was supported on his right by his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, Earl Granville, Mr. J. R. Lowell (the American Minister), and the Marquis of Lorne; and on his left by the Archbishop of Canterbury, the Marquis of Salisbury, and the Duke of Westminster. In front of the platform on which the speakers were seated was a bust of Dr. Stanley, and a medallion and a portrait in oil were suspended from the wall at the back of the platform. The memorial is to consist of a recumbent marble figure, to be placed on the grave of the beloved Dean, in one of the chapels of the Abbey; and the completion of the painted windows of the Chapter-house, in accordance with his own design. Subscriptions are being collected for this purpose'. From "Illustrated London News", 1881.
