 318 GEOSE*S TKEATMEKT OF KING. 1704 Grose's Orders of 26th FeVy, 1794, until now, when it has been done in such a manner as not to hurt the feelings of anyone pre- sent or absent, which I hope will be obvious from the tenour of the enclosed Proclamation made publick on the day the patent wu read." gjjje^« The Proclamation in question annulled certain Orders abrogated, and Confirmed others. Those issued by Grrose in Febmaiy, 1794, which conflicted with the directions received from the Home Department, were abrogated; those iw-hicli did not conflict were retained. In this Eang^s kindly disposi^ tion showed itself. A man of less generous mind would have given effect to his instructions without tronbling himself about the feelings of others.
