| Title | Letter [in French] from the Princess of Wales to Mrs. Clayton [GEO/ADD/28/129] thanking her for her letter, the 'good puddings' and for all her care, promising to follow 'the regimen of your freind' [presumably Dr Freind], reporting that she is going to Kensington tomorrow, remarking that the 'dispute to be Master of the Wardrobe' is between Lord Walgrave and Lord Malpas, and reporting that Lord Stairs is to go to Jamaica; with transcription in French and English translation [GEO/ADD/28/006]. |
| Date | n.d. [a later pencil note suggests possibly the end of 1726 or June 1727] |
| Writer | Caroline, Princess of Wales (1683-1737) |
| Addressee | Clayton, Charlotte, Mrs William |
| Notes | The original letter is GEO/ADD/28/129. The French transcription and English translation are on two halves of GEO/ADD/28/006. Both documents bear the circled number '58', which shows the order in which the original letter was bound.
The suggested pencil dating is based on Lord Malpas holding the post of Master of the Robes 1726-1727. |
