Mrs, Mary Anne Clarice and Col. Wardle, 41 The Marquis of Londonderry never failed to pay his respects to her, entertaining a very high opinion of her talents. Her manners were ex- ceedingly agreeable, and to the latest day she retained pleasing traces of past beauty. She was lively, sprightly, and full of fun, and indulged in innumerable anecdotes of the members of the royal family of England — some of them much too scandalous to be repeated. She regarded the Duke of York as a big baby, not ou...t of his leading-strings, and the Prince of Wales as an idle sensualist, with just enough of brains to be guided by any laughing, well-bred individual who would listen to stale jokes and impudent ribaldry. Of Queen Charlotte she used to speak with the utmost disrespect, attributing to her a love of domination and a hatred of every one who would not bow down before any idol that she chose to set up; and as being envious of the Princess Caroline and her daughter the Princess Charlotte of Wales, and jealous of their acquiring too much influence over the Prince of Wales.
