Content Description

She is glad to hear that the Duke of Dorset hs sent his letter. Lord Mansfield must have forgot, she suggests someone jog his elbow. Guy Carlton is definitely going to Canada, not India. She suggests a new mode of communication via the Ganges and Captain Williamson. Farington's brother goes in a week's time. He stops at Madeira which will delay him. Mr. Farington saw Sir John d'Oyley who reported Humphry's brother was at the Cape and in good spirits.
