Summary
Reporting on his father's condition; saying "The crisis may yet be postponed a few hours as the King is somewhat stronger from a night of some rest - restless tho not bad - But no one has a ray of Hope in the Palace...I am just out of the Kings room - very weak - no pulse - but certainly stronger than last night - but I fear much since yesterday morning."
