Title
William FitzHerbert to his father, Sir Henry: apologises for not writing - "the whole of my [time] is spent in playing at football, for you must know that we get up in the morning at a quarter before seven and stay in till half past eight. Then we have only another hour to eat breakfast and I have to get another boy his breakfast and toast it ..."; there has been great rejoicing, with illuminations and fireworks, over the queen.
