Excerpt from Queen Victoria
The Queen has a dislike of change, and many of her servants have been several years with her. When they retire, they receive every consideration, either in the shape of a pension, or in appointment to some post. Nor are they then forgotten, for the Queen's memory of faces is proverbial, and years afterwards some gate-keeper has been astonished by Her Majesty's thoughtful enquiries.
