Summary: Print shows a large group of city officials gathered around a table in Guildhall, some are jumping up and down on the table and have lost their hats and wigs. Posted on the wall are two notices: (1) 'Nov. 1st 1786. The Lord Mayor is requested to set aside Parade and Festivity the ensuing 9th Nov. on account of the [death] of the Princess Amelia' and (2) 'Guildhall. This day Nov'r. the 9 will be presented, not acted since the death of the Duke of Cumberland, a serious Entertainment called The City Camelions.'
