amiable trait in her Royal Highness the Ducl.e...

ill a considerable time, unknown to her Royal

her Royal Highness immediately sent a physicima
to attend him, and upon his report that he was vets
much reduced and consumptive, and that country
air was advisable, directed that he should be for-
warded to his home (it being the poor fellow's wish),
150 miles in the country, by easy stages, in a post-

terises her Royal Highness, ordered, with the col -
