The Want of Action by Mrs. Simpson
Sir,—A point that seems to be escaping public notice at present is the action, or want of action, on the part of Airs. Simpson. Realising the awful trouble that she has brought on our King. I should have thought that she would have proved the reality of her love for him by refusing to marry him under any circumstances, and by at once returning to America, remaining there, and never seeing him again. She would not be the first woman, and she will not be the last, who sacrificed love for duty. We all know of such cases in our own spheres of life. She is forcing me to think that she is keener on her own aggrandisement than on anvthing else. —I am. etc., OCTOGENARIAN. Wellington, December 8. [This letter was written before Airs. Simpson’s statement was issued from Cannes. —Ed. ]
