Description (What the record is about)
-
[Charles Delafaye] to Mr Whitworth. Explaining that an 'unfortunate difference has happened in the royal family which may give occasions to various discourses'. Delafaye believes that Whitworth should be made aware of the circumstances. Problems have arisen between the prince and his father with regard to the christening of the prince's son. There have been arguments concerning the choice of godfather and 'unbecoming' words spoken by the prince to the Duke of Newcastle. Other notables named in this dispute are Duke of Gloucester, Earl of Dorset, Lord Chamberlain and the Marchioness of Halifax (Lady of the Bedchamber). Dated at Whitehall.
