Comments:
"The Pageant had some additional embellishments. The horses had complete dresses in the style of chivalry. The unhorsing of St. James was dexterously performed. He fell so as to give the impression of reality to every heart. The rearing and plunging of the black horse was admirable. He is the best disciplined animal we ever saw" (Morning Chronicle, 3 Jan.).
