TRACKING KATHERINE I stepped out in a simple, comfortable dress for the long journey.

Adjusting my gloves, I let the housekeeper help me into the spacious carriage, explaining a few things along the way.

"Have a safe journey, Duchess," she said at last.

I thanked her and slid to the side of the plush seat, leaving space for the Duke.
