Strauge to say. very few people are
aware of an ancient custom which Is
¡■dll kept up Ht tbe Tower of Dnidou.
Just before midnight a beefeater mid
the chief yeoman porter secure tbe
keys from the governor's bouse to
“lock up" Having received the keys
they proceed to the guard room.
“Escort for tbe keys!" calls out tbe
porter, and a sergeant and six privates
turn out.
Tbe procession then marches off. and
the sentries they pass Issue the usual
challenge of "Wfio goes there?" to
which the answer Is "Keys."
Arriving at tbe entrance to the Tow-
er grounds, the lion's gate, the porter
locks the gates and the party returns
to tbe guardroom, tbe sentry challeng­
ing as before and receiving the same
answer
However. <m arrival at tbe
guardroom ngnin the sentry stationed
there stamps his foot, at the same
time giving tbe usual challenge.
“Keys." replies the porter.
“Whose keys?" the sentry asks.
“King Georges keys.”
"Advance King George's keys, and
all's well."
The porter then says. “God bless
King George.” and all present respond
with “Amen”
The keys are then
saluted and returned to tbe governor's
house, where they remain until the
next night's ceremony. — Pearson's
