[[underline]] In the House of Commons, The Solicitor General Sir Robert Gifford [[/underline]] wished seriously to ask the House, if [[underline]] His Majesty was ^ [[addition]] to be [[/addition]] deprived of the power of rewarding his tried and faithful Servants, in the event of his recovery-- [[/underline]] That recovery might be distant, and He would admit it, but while the possibility of its existing occurred, [[underline]] the Legislature [[/underline]] could [[underline]] not honestly, nor consistantly dispoil Him of a Right, [[/underline]] which if He had the use of His faculties, they would not think of touching or of questioning at that moment-- [[underline]] Mr: Hart Davies The Member for Bristol [[/underline]] affirmed that He was sure the Loyal Inhabitants of the City of Bristol would undergo any Sufferings rather than see their Venerable Sovereign in the last stage of life deprived of the Splendor, belonging to His rank and Station-- that for his own part He would most willingly have voted for the whole Establishment, as originally proposed-- He added that He had listen'd to The Noble Lord's (Lord Castlereagh) first Speech absolutely with disgust, & it was with deep regret He had seen the Establishment reduced to So low a point in the disgraceful way in which it had been done.
