Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Lady Louisa Stuart: Selections From Her Manuscripts Lady Louisa Stuart, the subject of this volume, was the youngest daughter of John, third Earl of Bute, Prime Minister at the beginning of the reign of George III. She was born 12th August, 1757, and died unmarried 4th August, 1851, in her ninety-fourth year. The youngest of a large family, for she was only four years old when her eldest sister, Lady Lonsdale, married. and being of a very uncommon and sensitive character, and endowed with abilities far above those of her elder sisters, and in fact of most young ladies of her time, she found her mother, for whom she had the deepest affection, far more of a companion than her sisters, except the one nearest to her in age, her favorite, Caroline, afterwards Lady Portarlington. Her father had retired from public life in 1763, when Lady Louisa was only five years old, and as in doing so he practically secluded himself from general society also, this contributed to the solitude of her existence.
