Description
Excerpt from Autobiography of a Seaman
His Majesty graciously listened, and his reply was kingly, that he would no longer allow the reparation which was her husband''s due, to be withheld. A change of ministry shortly afterwards followed, and, as already quoted in an extract from the writings of Lord Brougham, my restoration to rank re warded the heroic efforts of my devoted wife. Nevertheless, a leaven of former political malice remained, sufficiently powerful to prevent my restoration to the honours with which a previous Sovereign had invested me, but of which I had been despoiled with every mark of degradation which political animosity could invent.
