Content Description

He writes primarily in order to extract a response from Humphry; he has been building a gravel walk behind his house; he is glad Lord F. Campbell has given Humphry permission to study his drawings collection.

He discusses the latest infatuation of the Duke [of Dorset], for "Miss Cumb.", and hopes that Lord George has cured him of it; he raises the recent acquittal of Keppel and thinks the celebrations have gone too far.
