Content Description
The letter serves as an introduction to a Mrs Smithurst, who intended to be in Rome for some time. Graham Gilbert expresses his regret that Gibson had declined the commission for a statue to
Lord Clyde. He had heard that Gibson was doing a 'Hebe' feeding Cerberus, but could not recollect Hebe having anything to do with the monster.
