EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print, sourced from the "Illustrated London News" of 1860, depicts the grand Review of the Derbyshire Rifle Volunteers at Chatsworth Park. An estimated crowd of about 25,000 persons gathered to witness this significant military event. Under the command of Brigadier the Marquis of Harrington, over 12,000 volunteers were meticulously reviewed. The occasion was graced by the presence of Sir George Wetherall, who, as the reviewing officer, delivered a heartfelt speech in high praise of the volunteers. The troops had formed a square, with the cavalry and mounted volunteers stationed on the right. As General Wetherall approached the center, the mounted officers and rifle volunteers, who had been observing from the sidelines, gathered around him. In his address, General Wetherall expressed his belief that with minimal attention to their drill, the English volunteers would soon be prepared for the demands of war. The troops responded with enthusiastic cheers for Sir R. Wetherall, accompanied by the Duke of Devonshire, the Marquis of Harrington, and the Staff. As the distinguished guests departed, they were greeted with the roaring cheers of the spectators and the booming of cannon. In a final act of generosity, the Duke of Devonshire, as the Lord Lieutenant of the county, arranged for the men to be provided with refreshments at his own expense.
