2 MS. "Affaires Etrangeres Angleterre, " vol. 137, p. 400.
94 SEVENTEENTH-CENTURY BEAUTIES what Pepys has to say about her.^ For all that Gra- mont relates of her want of wit, she must have been a clever woman, or perhaps artful is nearer the word, and this, we may gather, was inherited from her mother, who, by Evelyn's account, was one of the most cunning women in the world.
The maiden name of Mrs. Walter Stuart is not known. Her husband was the third son of the first Lord Blantyre, whose fami
...ly was related to the Royal House of Stuart.
Frances Theresa was the elder and more beautiful daughter. Of her sister Sophia very little is known beyond the fact that she married Henry Bulkeley, the fourth son of Thomas, first Viscount Bulkeley, and Master of the Household to Charles II. And James II. Frances was born about the year 1647, ^'"^^ educated in France. At the Court of Louis XIV. The beauty of the young girl attracted the attention of that suscep- tible monarch, and when he heard that Queen Henrietta proposed to take her to England in her train he per- suaded her mother to let her remain that he might make a good match for her, saying that if she stopped he would see that she did not repent.
