medical bulletin issued tonight gave
the assurance that his majesty had
stood the 7U-mile motor trip well and
that his general condition was satiSfac-
tory several hours after he had reached
his new quarters in sunshine house"
as Craigwell House is known.
Lord Dawson Returns.
Lord Dawson of Penn, having ex-
amined the patient and issued the Of
fetal report. returned to London, while
Sir Stanley Hewett remained in as close
attendance upon the King as at Buck
ingham Palace.
Soon after arriving at his new home
on the south coast, His Majesty took
some nourishment. He then composed
himself and fell asleep enjoying pro-
longed and peaceful rest.
The Kings journey was a long pro-
ceSsion between cheerful lines Of thou
sands of his subjects, who seized the
opportunity to show their joy at his
improved condition.
AS the luxurious ambulance moved
along through the city. streets and then
through the towns and villages of Sur
rey and Sussex, dense throngs held
aloft fluttering handkerchiefs. Occa-
sionally they cheered. although re-
strained by the thought that the ex-
element might not be SO good for the
royal invalid
To general surprise. the King was
plainly visible through the glass win
dows Of the car. A uniformed woman
nurse by his side.
Several times along the route, the
King acknowledged the popular saluta-
tions by raising a white thin hand and
gently waving to his subjects.
