James Edward Corbett was the host to the Princes of Britain and Duke of Edinburgh that day. In his book 'TreeTops', Corbett mentioned about the whole event.
And Jim Corbett when he guided Elizabeth and Phillip that night there carried his famed .275 Rigby rifle which protected many future generations of people in India from falling prey to maneaters and marauder dangeroua game. So the rifle saw the Crownprincess arive and saw the Queen leave in the morning.

I stayed at this hotel in 1968. This is exactly what I remember.

Like the Ice Hotel in Greenland.

That's an epic...
Maybe That .275 was accurate. But that cannot shade Corbett's aim and accuracy.
@@MrAbhijitpanda He used the .400 3 inch Jeffery double rifle most of time also, videos of both are to be found on YT .
Elizabeth went up as a Princess and came down as a Queen.
