Content Description

She is sad that they have both suffered a heavy loss; the Duke of Devonshire and Mr. G. Lamb joined them in Spa; the waters agree with both her and Mr. A. Foster, but the climate is poor; she asks if Mr. Kemble plans to come to Rome; she reminds him that the Pope is very old and waits for his portrait of the King; the death of the Queen was unexpected and "had something aweful in it".
