Challenge Cup presented by the Prince of Wales to the Cambridge University Rifle Corps, 1861. The Prince of Wales recently opened the new practising-ground for the Cambridge University Rifle Corps, of which he is honorary Colonel, and at the same time his Royal Highness presented a silver cup to be competed for by the corps. On the conclusion of the ceremony the ex-champion, Mr. Ross, was called from the ranks to try a few shots at the new electric targets presented, on behalf of the ladies of Cambridge, by the Hon. Mrs. Neville, wife of the Vice-Chancellor, when he made five shots at 800 yards, scoring three "centres," a "below," and a "right." The Prince, after congratulating Mr. Ross, quitted the ground. The cup presented by his Royal Highness, of which we give an Engraving, is a parcel-gilt silver cup, nearly 2ft. high, richly chased in the Moresque or Saracenic style, with jewelled bosses at the base. His Royal Highnesss arms enriched are on one side, and the other side bears the following inscription: "Challenge cup presented by his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales to the Cambridge University Rifle Volunteers, 1861". From "Illustrated London News", 1861.
