on thursday to catch a glimpse of the King. He comes for the underline Recorders report /underline a Duty His Good Heart always suffers from, but its a necessary Evil - and there is alas the two Chapters of the Order of the Bath. I am sure You will be glad to hear that I have had an Excellent account of the Duke of Cumberland's underline Eyesight /underline. He wrote me a delightfull heartfelt letter full of His gratitude to ....... for having restored his sight. The Operation of ......... which took place ten months ago (last March) has succeeded so wonderfully that He has been able to join in a great Chasse at Strelitz and shoot very well indeed - that of course is not His Object, but He is naturally gratefull for any thing He can do. He is very fond of reading and can do so now without the least fatigue to His Eyes. His hand writing is very much improved and poor Dear Soul He is quite a happy independent Man now. I hope that lady Arran is in better health and lord Arran does not suffer from Rheumatism as severely as last year. God bless you both My Dear kind friends Ever yours very sincerely Attached Augusta
