He would not allow his servant to aid him in dressing or undressing. You could scarcely oflfend him more than by offering to hold his over- coat or button his cloak when he was getting ready to return from a ball or a rout. " Let me alone, " was the usual recognition of civility of some evident admirer, who sprang forward to help him out of a difficulty. Indeed, to such an extent was this feeling of independence carried as sometimes to cause results which were as comical as they were ludicrous,... and yet even in this respect he could at times put up with what was disagreeable to himself rather than give pain to another.
The Duke, much gratified by his election to a fellowship of the Royal Society, made a point of attending the President's soirees at least once a year. The company, aware of his peculiarities, usually allowed him in departing to put on his own cloak which a servant handed to him. It chanced that a young gentleman, whether a fellow or not I don't know, observed one evening that the cloak had got into a tangle, and sprang forward to put it to rights.
