    CHAPTER XXXI CONCLUDING CHAPTER PRESIDENTS OF CHARING CROSS HOSPITAL The Right Hon. The Marquis of Anglesey, E.G., 1818-1838. The Right Hon. The Marquis of Westminster, 1838-1850. The Right Hon. The Marquis of Salisbury, K.G., 1850-1868. The Right Hon. The Lord Overstone, 1868-1879. H.R.H. The Duke of Edinburgh, K.G., 1880-1900 (Duke of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha). The Right Hon. The Lord Wantage, V.C., 1900-1901. H.R.H. The Princess Louise, Duchess of Argyll, 1901- The close and continuous interest taken in their Medical School throughout its history by The President, Vice-Presidents and Governors, of Charing Cross Hospital and successive Councils of the Hospital—to whose prudent care, next to the liberality of its Benefactors and Supporters, the prosperity of the Hospital has been due—is well illustrated in the gracious Speech and Message to its Students by its Present President, Her Royal Highness, The Princess Louise, Duchess of Argyll, on the occasion of the inauguration of its recent Reorganisation in October, 1911 (q.v., pp. 249-250). It is also manifested in the Address given by one of its Vice-Presidents—The Lady Wantage—at the opening of its last Session in October, 1913, and by a Report of The Council of the Hospital in January last, and with these this Historical record may fittingly conclude.
