It is a very lonj; dorument. far too lone: for our limited space It K a retrospect of her Majesty's life since her marriane to the pi cbent period. It Ixins thus : m After the unparalleled and unprovoked perscnuion which during a series of years, has beet, carried on against me under the name and authority of your Mnjestv and which pcisccu- ticn instead of bein niollihcd by time, time has rcni!eicd oiilv mort and moie. malignant and un it Icntin it is not without a great sacrifice of pjivute feeling that I address this letter to your M:ijrsty.

It contains bit ter invectives against the King and his Ministers We can find room for only the latter part of the letter. "I have always demanded a fair trial.
