| Evidence: | Harriet, Countess Granville, to her brother, the Duke of Devonshire, 20 June 1835:
'Lord Fitzwilliam [...] and five offspring came [...] Meg took them under her especial care,
hurried them off to a couch in the ball-room, got partners for the girls, offered her own two
pretty little things up to the boys. But the youngest, Wentworth, preferred sitting all night in
the drawing room, studying the comic annual, and, that done, beginning "Belford Regis."' |
