A Prussian-Connaught marriage

Princess Patricia of Connaught

August 15, 1901

Is Crown Prince Wilhelm of Prussia about to propose to Margaret or Patricia of Connaught? That is one of the media rumors today. The Prince, who is the eldest son of Kaiser Wilhelm II, is about to arrive in London. His visit to Britain is apparently "the fulfillment of a long-standing promise," and the revival of a rumor of a "matrimonial suit for the hand of one of the daughters of the Duke of Connaught." 

Prince Wilhelm was expected to head to the North of Scotland for the grouse shooting.
