Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Life and Letters of Sir Gilbert Elliot, Vol. 3 of 3: First Earl of Minto, From 1751 to 1806 It was announced to Sir Gilbert during the autumn that the King intended to confer on him the honour of a peerage. Early in October he went to London to kiss hands. ´October 5, 1797. ´I am to kiss hands on Wednesday or Thursday next, and I propose to set off for Minto on Friday the 13th. I dined at Lord Spencer´s yesterday. There were Lady Spencer, Lady Pembroke, Lord Pembroke, Windham, Canning, Lord Malmesbury, Elliot and I. The Duke of Portland was also there; and it is impossible to say what he reports of the King´s favour towards me, and the satisfaction he expressed at this measure.
