I, 'Early Reminiscences')] [Pageheading: PRINCE ALBERT'S EDUCATION] _The King of the Belgians to Queen Victoria._ _13th April 1838._ ...

Concerning the education of our friend Albert, it has been the best plan you could have fixed upon, to name Stockmar your commissary-general; it will give _unite d'action et de l'ensemble_, which otherwise we should not have had.

Stockmar will make a regular report to you on this subject.

They will return to Bonn at the beginning of May, and remain till the end of August....
