The Goschens spent most of the early part of the year in Vienna. In January Goschen went to Gmunden, staying one night. In April he and Hosta spent a long week-end at Tentschach. In May they paid their usual annual visit to Budapest. They were at Tentschach for most of July and the first half of August; once again Goschen commuted. They spent the ‘season’ at Marienbad, and a few days in October at Tentschach. At the end of October they left for England.

page 147 note 3 Mensdorff noted in his diary for Sunday 2 June 1907 that he had had an exhausting week. He had had unpleasant conversations with Grey and Hardinge, who had received information to the effect that Aehrenthal wanted to introduce a new grouping of the powers into Macedonian affairs; this grouping would consist of the three ‘Kaisermächte’, together with France, to the exclusion of England and Italy. He commented: ‘Natürlich nehmen sie es übel und sind sehr schlect auf uns zu sprechen.’ (Mensdorff, Tagebuch, 2 June 1907, Nachlass Albert Mensdorff-Pouilly-Dietrichstein, Karton IV, Haus-, Hof- und Staatsarchiv, Vienna.) I am much indebted to Dr. F. R. Bridge, who has kindly lent me his transcript of this material.
