CLÉMENTINE, princesse de Saxe-Cobourg-Gotha (1817-1907)
L.A.S.: "Clémentine" Laeken, February 21, 1834, addressed to her brother François, prince de Joinville (1818-1900), 1 1/2 pages, text in French, creases, but overall good condition. "I received your letter yesterday dear Gros and I thank you very much for it. I've already spoken to Maman about the armor, we ... although there are none left here. You don't talk to me about shopping, at best you wouldn't have done any more? I've admired your accuracy, you'll probably have received a letter from me today. Yesterday we went for a very amusing walk in the fields around Laeken, we didn't get back until 5.¼ p.m., time to get dressed for dinner. We talked a lot about you and everyone, it's granted to praise my excellent knight, there is no more (...), good to have you here with me dear friend! If you want something from me, tell me? The little one is nice, but he looks sad and suffering and indeed, he suffers a lot, he is said to be so thin, we go there continually as you can imagine [she speaks of the first child of her sister, Queen Louise-Marie of Belgium, Prince Louis-Philippe, who died some time later on May 16, 1834], it's really only a diary that I'm writing you a real letter (...) Farewell dear good friend, I kiss you as I love you, a thousand things to the little ones".
