CHARGE, And by whom made. But very soon one of the doors, that which served for a communication of the servants into the eating-room, was ordered to be closed up, leaving only one entrance to the dining room, and the Queen's bed room. A bed was ordered to be brought for Pergami into the dining cabin, and this bed was so placed, that when the door of the Queen's sleeping room was open, she and Pergami could see each other while in bed, and hold conversation together. The only access to her Majesty's bed room was through the eating room, in which Pergami slept, and when the door of this room was shut, there was no means of access to the Queen's. The door of the eating cabin was constantly shut after they retired to rest. Attorney General. Witnesses who supported the Charges. Demont's Evidence, p. 286.

He left the room as if he were a person of equal rank to her Majesty. Attorney General. Witnesses who supported the Charges.
