Eleanor knew the ladies who had sent her letters wanted to come so they could curry favor with the queen dowager. While she felt a surge of irritation over this, she couldn’t refuse them.

The royal chancellor’s wife, Mildred, was the first to arrive. She was accompanied by her granddaughter, Rosalind. Eleanor explained the situation and mentioned that Victoria had sent food offerings, which prompted the concubines in the palace to do the same. At the same time, many noble ladies also expressed their desire to join in the event.
