DescriptionIt is probable that this is the 'paper' enclosed with the Queen's letter to Sir Thomas Tyrwhitt of 14 December 1815 (GEO/MAIN/51744). The Queen advises strongly against the Hereditary Prince of Orange and considers King William III a very bad political precedent; she recommends other Princes without previous connections with England, who would be less likely to set themselves up in opposition to the Prince Regent.
