HIS CHARACTER.
"At once good-natured and dignified, he was kind an appreciative to a degree, strict, but not, stern, scrupulously fair, often quick-tempered, though his anger had gone-not passed, but gone almost before it was thero, and he was never unreasonable, but always ready to hear an explanation. He had a wide sympathy and + sunny, generous nature, and possessed that quality, which must be rare in kings, of being able to look at things from a point of view other than that which was naturally his own, Resolute and strong-willed, he was a man who formed powerful opinions, and to his mination in the world, unless and until he was shown that he was wrong, when he would instantly give way in the most frank and handsome manner imaginable. For the rest, I tever saw him depressed. he had a keen sense of humour, his energy did not know the meaning of the word fear. He was a King-the King, but he was a man, too-a great-hearted gentleman."

A brougham was sent to meet him at the stations and was sent to meet bring up his luggage. Instead, however, of riding in the brougham, the Admiral drove with his luggage, on the box of the wagonette Halfway up the drive, they met His Majesty, who was superintending the transplanting of some young trees. Lord Fisher mede haste to climb dawn and go to the King.
"This is a nice way to come visiting me,' said His Majesty with a smile.
"I had no idea I should meet Your Majesty, said the other; and, Sir, I am so fond of the air.
With the whole of the Court, Princess Patricia was a great favourite. She has great personal charm, and though I saw her very seldom, the little I did see of her ways was enough to show me that she was a very great Indy
Once or twice I had the honour to dance with her. She was very careful to convey the impression that a dance was to her as agreeable as it was to her partner, whoever he might be. I remem ber noticing that she seemed exceedingly fond of the Duke of Connaught, from whom she was never far away.
