With Buck- ingham Palace and Windsor Castle as their State residences, and Bal- moral and Sandringham as their private homes, they felt that Os- borne would be a luxury not lightly to be borne. ‘ King Edward eventually assigned: Osborne as a. training place for naval cadets, and also as u conval- escent home for officers home from foreign service. “Meanwhile King Edward had to cope with a severi- remcnstrance made by his‘sist.er5.l who called his attention with some vehemence to the disregard of their mothers wishes as conveyed by her last will.
