--Some forty-five miles south of Augsburg, upthe Wertach River, more properly up the Mindel River, lies Mindelheim, once a name known in England and in Prussia; once the Duke ofMarlborough's "Principality:" given him by a grateful Kaiser Joseph;taken from him by a necessitous Kaiser Karl, Joseph's Brother, that nowis. I know not if his Majesty remembers that transaction, now while inthese localities; but know well, if he does, he must think it a shabbyone. On the same day, 1st August, 1730, we ...quit Augsburg; set outfairly homewards again. The route bends westward this time; towardsFrankfurt-on-Mayn; there yachts are to be ready; and mere sailingthenceforth, gallantly down the Rhine-stream, --such a yacht-voyage, inthe summer weather, with no Tourists yet infesting it, --to end, happilywe will hope, at Wesel, in the review of regiments, and other business. First stage, first pause, is to be at Ludwigsburg, and the wicked oldDuke of Wurtemberg's; thither first from Augsburg. We cross the Donau atDillingen, at Gunzberg, or I know not where; and by to-morrow's sunset, being rapid travellers, find ourselves at Ludwigsburg, --clear throughCanstatt, Stuttgard, and certainly no Katte waiting there!
