The East Surrey Regiment
The 70th Goblets
There is no record to show where or when these goblets, forty five in number, were purchased but as the first bears the date 11th October 1859 it is probable that they were bought in England before the return of the Regiment from India and New Zealand in 1866. They are of English manufacture.
