this
clear
in

morning
bulletin
today,
which,
otherwise,
wms
of
a
somewhat
more
encouraging
character
than
those
of
the
last
day
or
two.
There
was
a
-reluctance
in
Buckingham
Palace
circles
to
comment
on
today's
bulletin.
It
was
understood,
however,
that
today
and
the
immediately
succeeding
days
would
likely
be
anxious.
Consultation
of
doctors
this
morning
lasted
two
hours,
which
was
mueh
longer
than
usual.
iMri
Dawson
of
Penn
and
Sir
Stanley
Hewett,
the
King's
physicians,
spent
forty-five
minutes
at
the
palace
this
afternoon.
Despite
this
visit,
it
was
nulhoratively
stated
that
there
was
nn
change
in
the
King's
condition
since
morning.
This
morning's
bulletin
issued
by
the
physicians
aid:
"Although
the
King
has
panned
nn
undisturbed
night
and
there
has
been
some
fall
in
his
temperature
this
morning
and
there
is
also
a
slight
improvement
in
the
general
condition,
anxiety
muit
continue."
Last
night's
bulletin,
signed
by
the
two
physicians,
stated
that
the
King
had
passed
a
quiet
day,
but
there
was
no
diminution
of
the
exhaustion
referred
to
in
the
morning
bulletin.
His
Majesty's
pulse
continued
to
be
steady.

and
would
