THE KING’S ILLNESS.
An announcement was made last week that the King was confined to his bed -with an illness, due to a cold and fever. The latest bulletins however are regarded as highly satisfactory and His Majesty’s physicians are confident that he has weathered the storm. Rugby, November 23. A bulletin issued from Buckingham Palace early this afternoon ran as follows: —“The King passed a restless night, his temperature remaining at 101. There is a slight extension of mischief in the lung, but His Majesty’s strength is maintained.” The bulletin was signed by Lord Dawson and Sir Stanley Hewett, the King’s physicians. A high official of the Royal Household states with the authority of the physicians that certain bacteriological investigations which are habitual in all cases of microbe infection, have been carried out, and that a third doctor, who is a distinguished bacteriological specialist, was called in for this purpose.
