day, aad at all houn. I believe it to be quite
pi.ssible that the Princess should have been with
child without my observing it. I never was at break-1
fast with the Princess at Lady Willoughby's. Mel
Princess took a little girl into the house about nine
ago. I was not in the honte at the time. I

iber Captain Manby being there sometimes. He
not there very often ; he used to come at different

late ; I was at South End all the time the Prin.
was there; 1 cannot recollect that I have seen
Captain Manby there, or know him to be there
later than nine, or half after nine;. I never knew of
any correspondence by letter with him when he was
abroad. I don't recollect to have seen him ever early
In the morning at the Princess's ; I was at Ramsgate
with the Pnncess, Captain Manby may have dined
there once, he never slept there to my knowledge,
nor do I believe he did. The Princess rises at diffe-
rent hours, seldom before ten or eleven. I never
knew her up at six o'clock in the morning. If she
had been up so early I should not have known it, not
being up so early myself. I remember the Princess
giving Captain Manby an ink-stand. He had the
care of two boys, whom she protected. I cannot say
that Captain Manby did not sleep at South End. He
may have slept in the village, but I believe he never
slept in the Princess's house.
" I was at Catherington with the Princess. I re-
member her Royal Highness going out in an open
carriage with the present Lord Hood; I believe Lord
Hood's servant attended them ; there was only one
servant, and no other carriage with them. I was at
Dawlish the summer with the Princess, and after-
wards at Mount Edgecumbe. The Princess saw a
great deal of company there; Sir Richard Strachan
used to come there ; I do not know what was the
cause of his discontinuing his visits there. I remember
Sir Sydney Smith being frequently at Montague-house.
lie an sometimes there as late as 12or one o'clock in
the morning, but never alone that I know of. The
Princess was not in the room when Lady Douglas was
brought to bed; I know she was not, because I was
in the room myself when Lady Douglas was deliver-
ed. Dr. Machier of Lewisham, was the acceucheur.
I do not recollect Sir Sidney Smith ever being alone
with the Princess in the evening. It may have hap-
pened, but Ido not know that it did. I used to sit
with the Princess always in the evening, but not in
the morning. I was with the Princess in the Isle of
Wight; Mr. Hood and Lord Beauclerk were there
with her : she went there from Portsmouth.

" The Princess used to go out in her phaeton, with
coachman and helper, towards Long Reach, eight
or ten times, carrying luncheon and wine with her;
when Captain Maaby's ship was at Long Reach, al.
ways Mrs. Fitz Gerald was with her : she would go
ont about one, and return about five or six, sometimes
sooner or later. The day the Africaine sailed from
South End,, the Princess ordered us to pack up for
Blackheath next morning. Captain Manby was there
three times a week, at least, whilst his ship lay for six
weeks off South End, at the Nore ; he came as tide
served; esed to come in a morning, and dine, and
drink tea. I have seen him next morning, by ten
o'clock. I suspected he slept at No. 9. The Princess
always put out the candles herself in the drawing.
room, at No. 9, and bid me not wait to put them up.
Bhe gave me the orders as soon as she went to South
End. I used to see water.jugs, basins, and towels
set out opposite the Princess's door in the passage.
Never saw them so left in the passage at any other
time. I suspected he was there at those times, and
there was a general suspicion through the house. Mrs.
and Miss Fitzgerald were there, and Miss Hammond,
(now Lady Hood.) My suspicion arose from seeing
them in the glasses kiss each other, as mentioned
before, like people fond of each other, a very close
kiss. Her behaviour like that of a woman attached
to a man, used to be by themselves at luncheon at
South End, whew Ladies were not sent for, a number
of times. There was .1 pony whici2.Capt. Manby used
to ride. It stood in the stable ready for him, and
which Sicard used to ride. The servants used to talk
and laugh about Capt. Manby__it was a matter of
dkcourse amongst them. I lived there when Sir
Sidney Smith came—her manner with him appeared
very familiar s she appeared very attentive to him,
but I did not suspect any thing. further. All the
upper servants had keys of the doors to the Park, to
let her Royal Highness in and out. I used to see
Siccard receive letters from Mrs. Sander to put in
the post instead of the bag ; this was after Captain
Manby had gone to sea. I suspected them to be for
Capt. Manby, and others in the house supposed the.
same. (Sigtied) R. BIDGOOD.

" I attended the Princess of Wales in the spring,

Mr. Mills and hispartner, Mr. Edmeads, have at.

person attended her at that time, either as apothe-
cary or physician. In March, 1802, I attended her
for a sore throat and fever. In 1803, in April, I
attended her Royal Highness again with §ir' William

SIR FRANCIS MILLMAN TO TRIM LORD CHANCIILLOR.
" MY Loan—Before your arrival in liowning-
street, last night, I bespoke the indulgence of the
Lords of his Majesty'', Council for inaccuracy as to
dates, respecting my attendance at Blackheath before
1803. Having only notice in•the forenoon of an ex-
amination, I could not prepare myself for it, to any
period previous to that year, and I now hasten as
fast as the examination of my papers will permit, to
correct an error, into which I fell, in stating to their,
Lordships that I attended her RoyM Highness the
Princess of Wales in the spring of 1802, and that I
then met his Royal Highness the late Duke of Glou-
cester al Blackheath.

" It was in the Spring of 1801, and not of 1802,
that, after attending her Royal Highness the Princess
of Wales for ten or twelve days, I had the honour
of seeing the Duke of Gloucester at her house.
" I have the honour to be, with the greatest re-
spect, my dear Lord, your Lordship's most obliged
and obedient humble servant,
