Excerpt: ... strangers, and perhaps some other unknown circumstance, caused it to be soon rumoured that his Majesty was concealed in that neighbourhood; so that it became evident to all concerned that no time was to be lost in putting his person out of danger. In point of fact, so much was this rumour believed, that a search was made for him by the public authorities at Brighton the very day after his embarkation! The vessel was at this time lying dry, during the ebb tide, in a creek at Shoreham. The skipper now began to think that, considering the importance of the personage he was about to take on board, he might fairly look for more than the sum he had stipulated for, and told Colonel Gunter that he expected he would at least insure his vessel, which he valued at i?200, against the risk of seizure, in the event of his being discovered. The Colonel thinking this was no more than what was reasonable, consented to it; " but," added Mr Feversfield, " I must have your bond for it." To this the Colonel made objections; and the King, who was present, remarking that " a gentleman's word was as good as his bond, especially when given before witnesses," the skipper gave up his demand, on the understanding that he was to be farther remunerated for his service, should his Majesty ever be fortunate enough to recover his kingdom. The King and Lord Wilmot now lay down in their clothes for about two hours; and the Colonel coming to call them at four o'clock in the morning of Wednesday the 15th, the whole party got ready, mounted their horses, and set out for Shoreham, Mr Feversfield being taken on a horse behind one of them. When they arrived, the sea had not returned sufficiently to surround the vessel, so that the two fugitives, after taking an affectionate...

She felt a very warm interest in the prosperity and success of his expedition, and sometimes the tidings she received from him encouraged her to hope that all might yet be well. Here, for instance, is a note which she addressed one day to an officer who had sent her a letter from the king, that had come enclosed to him. It is written in a broken English, which shows how imperfectly the foreign lady had learned the language of her adopted country. They who understand the French language will be interested in observing that most of the errors which the writer falls into are those which result naturally from the usages of her mother tongue.Queen Henrietta to Sir Edward Nicholas."MAISTRE NICHOLAS, --I have reseaved your letter, and that you send me from the king, which writes me word he as been vere well reseaved in Scotland; that both the armi and the people have shewed a creat joy t...
