Note 68 — WALK VI.
Reading edition
It was either this Sir Archibald's widow or his mother, that was the Lady Primrose who entertained Flora Macdonald so hospitably in London, during her detention there in 1747, and to whose house in Essex Street, Strand, Prince Charles came during the secret visit he paid to London in 1750. Dr. King, in his Political and Literary Anecdotes, gives an account of meeting the Prince at Lady Primrose's.
