the Queen to the Prince of Wales Nov. 19th. 1794 the Queen Novr. 19. 1794 My dearest Son. I received Yesterday The Patter of the Princefses Night Drefs which is very elegant & pritty but Nothing else, not even an Answer to my Letter which is rather singular. Pray be so good as to enquire of Princefs Sophie of Glocester if She has a [[addition]] Pattern [[/addition]] Glove [[deletion]] of [[/deletion]] & if so do send it me. What to do about Shoes I do not know & am feel very sorry about it particularly as I thought to have expressed myself Circumstantially enough upon every Subject to the Dutchess as You will see by the Copy of any Letter which I send for my justification. I also spoke to the Kg about the Robe. He says that The Princess may be Married in a Gown & Petticoat if you like it, [[deletion]] & [[/deletion]] also that He has no Objection to a Robe. I beg therefore a determination upon that Subject. The Gazette of 1736. will tell exactly how it was & the sooner it is settled the better both to me & the Bride Maids who must be Drefsed the Same. Apropos. You must speak as soon as You can to the Kg about the Bride Maids, For I Understand [[foreign: french]] et cele [[unclear]] entre Nous [[/foreign]]
