As to Knyphausen's proceedings at Mecklenburg, after the happy Peace, they were not so successful as had been hoped.

Need of quarrel, however, between the Majesties, there henceforth was not in Mecklenburg; and if slight rufflings and collisions did arise, it was not till after our poor Double-Marriage was at any rate quite out of the game, and they are without significance to us.

But the truth is, though Knyphausen did his best, no settlement came; nor indeed could ever come.
Shall we sum up that sorry matter here, and wash our hands of it?
TROUBLES OF MECKLENBURG, FOR THE LAST TIME.
Knyphausen, we say, proved futile; nor could human wit have succeeded.
The exasperated Duke was contumacious, irrational; the two Majesties kept pulling different ways upon him.

Matters grew from very bad to worse; and Mecklenburg continued long a running sore.

Not many months after this (I think, still in 1729), the irrational Duke, having got money out of Russia, came home again from Dantzig; to notable increase of the Anarchies in Mecklenburg, though without other result for himself.
