Companies of the 48th Highlanders formed up with white kit bags and wearing bed rolls with rifles, for Tercentenary of Quebec ceremonies July 1908. It was a huge military review, (over 13,000) soldiers. H.R.H. the Prince of Wales, later King George V, was to take the salute. The Toronto Brigade, (QOR, 10th Royals, and 48th Highlanders), was invited and gladly accepted. The brigade left Toronto on 19 July and were accommodated in tents at West Savard Camp. The 21 July was a rehearsal of the ceremonial. H.R.R. the Prince of Wales arrived 22 July and the Toronto Brigade, helped line the streets of Quebec. Second rehearsal was 23 July, and review proper was on 24 July. From: The Queen’s Own Rifles of Canada 1860-1960 One Hundred Years of Canada by LCol W.T. Bernard ED, CD.
