tc007-048.jpg 4.3Ktc007-046.jpg 3.9KAt left, King Timotheous listens closely to Master Edwin's accounting of the dowry proposed to accompany the King's wedding to Princess Allyson. One stipulation was that Her Highnesses children of a previous marriage would retain rights to the throne. His Majesty thought momentarily, but concluded that they were indeed pretty cute and agreed to the terms. On the right, a look at part of the dowry that was carried in by several individuals. Of course, these were mere trinkets compared to the Princess herself and rumor has it that the King would have wed Her for much less.
