Dear Cha,—I shall say nothing more but that I hope and pray what you have done may prove beneficial to your comfort and happiness. This is my only concern. It can in no way affect my feelings to Hope, nor, most surely, towards you.

“In case you have any country folks that would like to see Northumberland House or Syon, I send tickets, and have more, if wished for, at your command.

“We had a Protection party—the Stanleys, Eglintons, &c., &c., but pleasant enough on the whole. The great Lord and Lady themselves most kind.—Yours ever affectionately,

J. G. Lockhart.”
