The Mary Hamilton Papers
<p style='text-align: justify;'>Letter from Lady William Hamilton to Mrs Charles Hamilton. She is concerned to hear that her husband’s gout had returned and hopes that he will recover fully soon. She is sorry to hear that she will soon 'lose you both out of our neighbourhood this Winter' and notes that it will be a 'great loss to me in particular, & I do not know how to reconcile my self to it'. She wishes that they would all go to Naples together but such a scheme she fears is a 'little in the Castle Building System'. She hopes to see them before they leave and writes of her interest in everything they do.</p><p style='text-align: justify;'>Original reference No. 2.</p>
