In den WarenkorbFront., vignette title, plates inc. one folding; front. & engr. title dampstained, plates sl. spotted. Contemp. half black calf, spine lettered & dec. in gilt; extremities sl. rubbed, marbling worn off both boards. William IV, 1765-1837, was the third son of George III. In 1830 at age 64, William succeeded his elder brother Geor…ge IV when the King died without legitimate issue; he is currently the oldest person ever to succeed the throne. He endeavoured to be seen as a hardworking and down-to-earth monarch which proved popular with the people after the extravagances of his elder brother, at least until the Reform crises. William had a rather colourful personal life prior to becoming King - he lived with Irish actress Dorothea Bland (better known by her stage name Mrs. Jordan) for twenty years and had ten illegitimate children, five sons and five daughters. The two parted ways in 1811 due to William's increasing debts, and he married Princess Adelaide of Saxe-Meiningen in 1818, with whom he appears to have had a happy and faithful marriage.

In den Warenkorb12mo, 3 pp. Text clear and complete. Fair, on aged paper. 'Mr Westmacott [the sculptor Richard Westmacott the younger?]' has called on him, and he has 'shown him the settlement all down my Wall - I told him that you had seen it but did not contemplate any immediate danger - he said that Mr Valpy [Henry Valpy (fl.1851-1885) of th…e architects Burrell & Valpy] was out of town'. Westmacott will write to Valpy, as he thinks there ought to be 'a conference with' Lakyn, who 'should be requested to make a report'. The 'suggestion' Newton has made 'as to the Iron ties will be indispensable - & furthermore that the East wall near door to me should be rebuilt - as it must have weakened the North East angle'. The 'wall of Mr Slades house' has fallen down 'with a tremendous crash - while they were digging for the underpinning' [according to the Survey of London, Stephen Slade lived at 8 Argyle Street from 1819 to 1864]. From what Newton sees 'as to a preparation for a Wall' he fears that the builders 'intend to come beyond the opening of my light'. Asks Lakyn to 'look in' if he 'should be coming this way'. Newton moved from 6 Argyle Street, where he had lived since 1820, in 1866.

Signed at end by three of the seven Lords Commissioners of the Treasury: 'N Vansittart | Lowther | G C H Somerset'. Summarised at foot of second page: 'A. Dickie Esqre. £76 . 18 . 9 Pensions to late Servants of Younger Princes Quarter ended 5th. April 1820'. Thirty-eight line document, directing payment to 'Andrew Dickie Esquire or to his Assigns the Sum of Seventy Six Pounds Eighteen Shillings and Nine Pence', to enable him to pay allowances 'to the late Servants of our Dearly Beloved Brother William Henry Duke of Clarence, our late Dearly Beloved Brother Edward Duke of Kent and our Dearly Beloved Brothers Ernest Duke of Cumberland, Frederick Augustus Duke of Sussex, and Frederick Adolphus Duke of Cambridge'. Dickie was a confidential clerk and later partner in the banking firm of Messrs Coutts and Co., which handled the king's Privy Purse accounts. From the distinguished autograph collection of the psychiatrist Richard Alfred Hunter (1923-1981), whose collection of 7000 works relating to psychiatry is now in Cambridge University Library. Hunter and his mother Ida Macalpine had a particular interest in the illness of King George III, and their book 'George III and the Mad Business' (1969) suggested the diagnosis of porphyria popularised by Alan Bennett in his play 'The Madness of George III'.
