Epigraph: Miss Stephen, Miss Parkes, the Mayoress of Sydney, Lady Darley, and Lady Carington have concocted to following for the women and girls throughout NSW to sign:- "To the Queen - We, the women and girls of New South Wales, desire to offer our congratulations to your Majesty, upon the completion of the 50th year of your reign. With respect and affection we offer our tribute of loayalty, and trust that God Almighty may continue to bless the Queen, to whose supreme place in birth and station has been added the sad title of pre-eminence in grief."
