Prince Albert Victor at Cambridge University, 1883. 'The Prince playing hockey; Boating; the Prince after "Tubbing"; 1st Trinity boat and boat house... The residence of Prince Albert Victor of Wales at Trinity College, Cambridge, and his entrance upon University life, must be an interesting occasion for his Royal relatives, his uncles and aunts, as well as for his parents; so that the visit he received last Monday from the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh, who came and lunched with him privately at his own rooms, is a very natural incident. We add to the former Illustrations those now given of his participation in some of the ordinary recreations of the place, boating and playing hockey, and other healthful customs of a well-bred young Englishman, which are kept up as much to his advantage as in the case of the generality of Cambridge undergraduates. With regard to his University studies, the College Tutor is the Rev. Joseph Prior, M.A., while the Rev. J. N. Dalton, M.A., is private tutor to his Royal Highness , and these gentlemen, between them, will take charge of his University education'. From "Illustrated London News", 1883.
