in four months and rumors were
circulating last week that there
was a rift between them. Buck

port as they departed for the
royal yacht, anchored at Setubal,
about 30 miles south of the Por
tuguese capital, for their weekend
alone.
The Duke, tanned except for
his chin which was newly clean
shaven of a beard, was smiling
broadly as he followed the Queen
down the ladder and presented
her to the Portuguese Foreign
Minister. The Queen was pale
but smiling, also.
