Collection | Additional papers of George IV, as Prince, Regent, and King |
Description | The Prince responds to Hamilton's answer that she went to London 'in order to enjoy the sweets of 'L. D's society' [?Lady Dartrey], and reminds her of her promise not to depart until the Prince was also free to do so. He writes 'let us banish out of the Dictionary such words as, Sir, your R H, gracious, and such like nonsensical expressions which are only fit for Court friends, which are a disgrace to the word friend'. In postscript he asks Hamilton to tell him if she hears anything about [Prince William] and 'anything more of the impertinence either of Mr H or of W R'. Written in the morning, 1/2 past 9. Signed 'Palemon'. |
