H'HE FIRST INTIMATE account
^ of life in the British royal fami
ly ever to be written by a member
of their household appeared in a
■*recent issue of a national maga
zine. Under the title, “The Little
Princesses,” Princess Elizabeth’s
and Princess Margaret’s governess
lifts the curtain that shielded the
children’s personal lives.
The story by Marion Craw
ford, who lived tinder the royal
roof for 17 years, la written
against a backdrop' of aoch
great events ( 4s Edward’s ab-
dicaton. the king and queen’s
coronation, and World War II,
continuing through the birth of
Elisabeth’s son, Prince Charles,
last year. Appearing in eight in-
____ stqllments in the magazine, the
book later will be published.
“As far as education was con
cerned, the duke and duchess (of
York, how,the king and queen) re
posed great confidence in me, leav
ing much tb my judgment,” the
former governess, a Scotch woman
and a graduate of an Edinburgh
teachers’ college recounts.
“No one ever had employers who
interfered so little. Later I came
to feel this was a very great re
sponsibility. and it worried me a
lot. I was to find here a wonderful
ally in Queen Mary whose advice
and suggestions were always im-
-mensely practical and helpful. Per
haps it was generally conceded in
those days that the education of
two not very important little girls
did not matter a great deal.”
She recalls some nursery battles
royal: “Let it not be thought that
all was sweetness and light in our
schoolroom all the time. These
were two entirely normal and
healthy little girls, and we had our
difficulties. Neither was above tak
ing a whack at an adversary, if
roused.
“Schoolroom brawls often started
when they had to wear hats. They
hated hats This put th.em*in a bad
humor and they would snap one
another's elastic spitefully to reg
ister displeasure, to shrill cries^ ol
LIHbet was quick with her left hook, while Margaret was more
•f.a close-in fighter, the governess of Britain'* princesses writes,
teUtng of their childhood scraps. Both girls were known to bite on
occasions, and more than once the governess’ hand showed roysl
teeth marks.
these scenes from the duchess. She
was herself so sweet and gentle.”
It was g homelike and unpre-
teatious household at 145 Plca-
difly in London Just beyond
Hyde Park when Miss Crawford
joined the household, long be
fore anyone could foresee the
family’s eventual residence In
the palace. “It was s home the
center of which was undoubt
edly the nurseries,” she says.
“They were on the top floor,
comfortable sunny rooms that
opened onto a landing beneath
a big glass dome. Bound the
dome stood some thirty-odd
toy horses shout a foot high on
wheels.”
Lilibet, then about six years old
explained, “That’s where we sta
ble them.” Each horse had its
own saddle and bridle which were
kept immaculate and polished by
the little girls themselves.
One of Lilibefs favorite games
’You brute! You beast! We kept was to harness her governess with
little red reins, or to be a horse
herself, prancing around. Once the
governess commented to the king
that this obsession for horses was
surely rather remarkable.
His majesty said, "Think nothing
of it. It is a family idiosyncrasy.
My sister Mary was a horse till
she ‘came out.’ ”
“Margaret took a warm in
terest In her toilettes from an
early age. Lilibet never cared a
Hg. She was never happier than
when she was thoroughly busy
and rather grubby.” She and
her governess set up a toy
farm, buying most of the pieces
at Woolworth’s. Then Lilibet
went through a phase of being
very faVm-mlnded, deciding to
marry a farmer when sbe
grew up. ”1 shall have lots of
cows, horrra and children.”
she announced.
