A WAITER named Samuel Spring having occasion to write to his late
Majesty, George IV., when Prince of Wales, commenced his letter as
follows: Sam, the waiter at the Cocoa-Tree, presents his compliments to
the Prince of Wales, &c. His Royal Highness next day saw Sam, and after
noticing the receiving of his note, and the freedom of the style, said,
Sam, this may be very well between you and me, but it will not do
