"I think she's going," said the Rector's wife. "She was very red in the face when we left dinner. I was obliged to unlace her."
In the same letter, referring to the King's obstinacy, and to the grief on that account which he believes to be preying on Henderson, he implores him to take courage, shake off "melancholious thoughts," and "digest what cannot be gotten amended."
