Content Description

A jotter book, the majority of which is filled with scholastic exercises; at some point the volume was reused briefly as a notebook by Richmond when a young man, lists of portraits and the dates at which they were painted are entered for the year 1789-90; inserted loosely into the volume are a sketch of an unidentified funerary memorial and a brief verse, dated 15th October 1814 and signed Thomas Richmond.

Provenance

This volume, although acquired from Agnews at the same time as the rest of the Archive, belonged to a direct descendent of both Thomas and George Richmond.
