Martha Bruce, Countess of Elgin and Kincardine

• ... that King George III placed the "deeply-deplored" Princess Charlotte of Wales under the superintendence of the pious Martha Elgin (pictured)?

• Reviewed: Ferdinand the Holy Prince
• Comment: The hook relies on three references, chiefly Cokayne and The Annual Biography and Obituary for the year 1818, both quoted in footnotes. The "deeply-deplored Princess Charlotte of Wales" is a Malapropism from Burke's Peerage of 1833, quoted in the article.

• Looks good to me. AGF on the offline sources, but overall the article is well written and usefully illustrated. Date and length are fine. We're good to go. Prioryman (talk) 09:37, 4 November 2012 (UTC)
