Note 203 — Chapter XXVII · GENERAL GORDON’S MISSION.
Reading edition
Prince Leopold lived chiefly at Boyton Manor from the summer of 1875 till the autumn of 1879, when the Queen insisted on his going to Claremont. It was at Boyton that he was so dangerously ill in 1877 that Sir William Jenner telegraphed for the Queen to come to what was supposed to be his deathbed. After that her Majesty always objected to his staying in Wiltshire.
