Augustus Hare (Maria Leycester).

only son Edward (married, 1853, Henrietta Clive, daughter of Baroness
Windsor) to the guardianship of Edward Stanley.
[4] Madame Récamier, famous French beauty, 1777-1849.
[5] Pius VII., made Pope in 1800.
[6] General Jourdan, 1762-1833, Marshal. He fought in the Peninsular

[8] Louis, King of Etruria, son of Ferdinand, Duke of Parma married
Mary, Infanta of Spain; died 1803.
[9] Comte de Linois, 1761-1848. On June 13, 1801, he, with three ships,
defeated six British ships in Algeciras Bay, and being protected by the
Spanish batteries, he forced the British admiral to retreat, leaving the
_Hannibal_ in possession of the enemy. In recognition of this triumph
Linois received a sword of honour from Napoleon. The English fleet
avenged this disaster on July 12, 1801, when the Spanish and French
squadrons set out from Cadiz with the captured _Hannibal_ and Admiral
Saumarez forced the combined fleets to retire shattered into harbour
again.
[10] The vessel in which Edward Stanley's elder brother John had made
his Icelandic Expedition, 1788.
[11] A famous image of the Virgin, said to have been found A.D. 880 on a

[13] Emanuel Godoy, favourite Minister of Charles IV. of Spain.
[14] H.R.H. Edward, Duke of Kent; appointed Governor of Gibraltar, 1802.
In order to establish strict discipline in the garrison, which he found
in a very demoralised state, he issued a general order forbidding any
private soldiers to enter the wine shops, half of which he closed at a
personal sacrifice of £4,000 a year in licensing fees. In consequence, a
mutiny broke out on Christmas Eve, 1802. Though the mutiny was quelled,
the Home Government did not support the Duke, who was recalled in March,
1803.
[15] Edward Stanley's sister, Louisa; m., November, 1802, to Sir Baldwin
Leighton, Bart., of Loton, Shropshire.

[21] Madame Moreau, widow of General Moreau, daughter of General Hulot,
and a friend of the Empress Joséphine. Since the death of the General,
who was killed at the battle of Dresden, in 1813, the Emperor Alexander
had given Mme. Moreau a pension of 100,000 francs a year in recognition
of her husband's services; and in 1814 Louis XVIII. gave her the rank of
"Maréchale de France."
[22] Catherine Fanshawe, poetess, and friend of most of the literary
people in London of her day.
[23] Mrs. Marcet, b. 1785, a native of Geneva (_née_ Halduriand). Well
known for her economic and scientific works.
[24] Madame de Staël, daughter of Louis XVI.'s Minister Necker, b. 1766,
d. 1817. Married 1786 to the Baron de Staël, Swedish Minister to France.
She had been exiled from France by Napoleon on account of her books,
"Corinne" and "L'Allemagne."
[25] Sir Humphry Davy, 1778-1829; began life as a Cornish miner. He
became a distinguished chemist and scientist.
[26] Daughter of C. Kerr, Esq., of Kelso, and widow of S. Apreece, Esq.,

[30] Catherine, Grand Duchess of Russia, sister of the Emperor Alexander
I., won golden opinions in England. "She was very clever, graceful, and
elegant, with most pleasing manners, and spoke English well." Creevey
says that the Emperor was much indebted to his sister, the Duchess of
Oldenburg, for "keeping him in the course by her judicious interposition
and observations." In 1808 Napoleon had wished for her as his bride,
but, as she says in a letter to her brother, the Czar, "her heart would
break as the intended wife of Napoleon before she could reach the limits
of his usurped dominions, and she cannot but consider as frightfully
ominous this offer of marriage from an Imperial Assassin to the daughter
and grand-daughter of two assassinated Emperors" (see "Letters of Two
Brothers," by Lady G. Ramsden). The marriage of the Grand Duchess
Catherine to the Duke of Oldenburg was hastily arranged to enable her to
escape the alliance. The Duke died in 1812, and she afterwards married
her cousin, the Crown Prince of Wurtemberg, to whom she had been
attached in early youth. The Duchess attracted great attention by
wearing a large bonnet, which afterwards became the fashion and was
called after her.

[34] Platoff, 1716-1818, Russian General.

husband it had affected her so deeply that she feared breaking down on
any public occasion.
[37] Rowland Hill. General Lord Hill, 1772-1842; distinguished in the
Peninsular War.
[38] The Prince Regent, afterwards George IV.
[39] "After the Restoration of the Bourbons several duels took place for
the most frivolous causes. Duels were fought even by night. The officers
of the Swiss guards were constantly measuring swords with the officers
of the old 'Garde Impériale'" (Gronow's Memoirs, vol. ii. p. 22).
[40] The Colonne Vendôme. This stood on the site of a statue to Louis
XIV. which had been melted down at the Revolution. It was made of
Austrian cannon taken during the years from 1806 to 1810.
[42] Madame de Staël had only returned to France after her long exile a
few weeks after Napoleon's abdication. Her rooms were in the Hôtel de

Treasures taken by Napoleon.
[44] Talma, the celebrated tragic actor, 1763-1826.

[51] Madame Récamier, 1777-1849, a famous beauty. She had held a "salon"
