FAeE PAINTING.

-HCA- <hzAt @A'Os
LADY Coventry, the celebrated
beauty, killed herfelf with painting.
She bedaubed hcrfelf with Waite 70 as
to flop the perfpiration. Lady Mon
tague was more prudent--ihe went
often into the hot bath, to fcrape off
the paint, which, was almolf as thick as
platter on wall.
KING George /. prior to his aecefli-
on TO the throne of England, had an
amorous connexion with a German
Counties. This flame not being cooled
by time, he brought the lady toEnglapd,
and fhe was created Dutchels of Kendall.
She was confdered the fayorite of the
monarch, though NOT much refpetted by
the people, About the time this Brunf-
wick Lais was expected in. England,
Mrs. Mapp, noted bone fetter, and
mountebank, of whom many laughablc
particulars may be read in the Tatlers,
Spectators, Grubitreet Journal, &c. conn
ing to town, as the anecdote is related
by Putteney, with coach and fix, was
met by rabble, who fleeing her oddly
and tawdrily drefed, took her for fo-
reigner. and concluded fhe was the
Kings miltrefs, above defcribed. Up
on this, they followed the coach, bawl-
ing out, no HanoVer whore, no Hanover
who're. The lady within the coach was
much offended, let down the glafs and
dreamed louder than any of them,
She was no Hanover whore, fhe was an
Ensftb one. Upon which, the mob,
with true Engliih complaifance, cried
out, God blefs your ladyihip, and WITH
ed her good journey.
