Title
Copies in the hand of George III of two letters from the Duke of Brunswick to his son the Hereditary Prince of Brunswick objecting to his plan to go to England and ordering him not to go until January, and to take no more than 4 weeks to accompany his wife to London and return.

22 November 1769
Writer
Brunswick, Charles I, Duke of (1713-1780)
Addressee
Brunswick, Charles William Ferdinand, Hereditary Prince of (1735-1806)
Description
The first letter lays down his conditions, the second refuses to retract and insists that his son's duty to remain, given the situation in Brunswick, outweighs any reason he has to go to England.
