to each other, and the marriage took
place Just after he had returned from
his brilliant career in India During
his absence of eleven years she never
once wrote to him, yet her affection
was constant.
When Lady Wellesley was presented
to Queen Charlotte, her Majesty said:
81 am happy to see at my court so
bright an example of consistency. But
did you really never write one letter to
Sir Arthur during his long absenceP'
"No, never, your Majesty
"And did you never think Of himP'
"Yes, your Majesty, very often"
She was proud of her husbands rep.
utation, but prouder of the fact that he
merited it. just before her death, she
was visited by friends who found her
lying on a sofa in room filled with
the magnificent presents Of cities. king
doms and sovcroigns. When the visi-
tors gazed upon them with admiration,
the Duchess exclaimed, with weak

value! All pure, no corruption even!
