MR. NEVILLE TO THE MARQUIS OF BUCKINGHAM.

Windsor Castle,

Wednesday, Nov. 11th, Four o'clock, 1788.

The King had more sleep last night than the night before; but is

in other respects the same as before. I fear there is very

little hope of amendment, as he has no fever, and his pulse and

appetite are as good as ever. The King had some lucid intervals

this morning, conversing with great composure with a page, whom

he recollected but to have seen since his illness; and he also

mentioned his son, Prince Augustus, who is going to the South of

France. He soon, however, returned to his unfortunate agitation

and delirium, in which he still continues. Sad state!

Ever yours affectionately, in haste,

R. A. N.
