“. . . Lord Grey
has lost that one front tooth which has so long upheld his upper lip; but his
face, tho’ altered by it, is much less so than I should have expected;
and his voice and manner of speaking not the least affected by it.”
Charles Grey, second earl Grey (1764-1845)
Whig statesman and lover of the Duchess of Devonshire; the second son of the first earl
(d. 1807), he was prime minister (1831-34).
