The Mary Hamilton Papers

<p style='text-align: justify;'>Letter from Charlotte Finch to Mary Hamilton. She asks Hamilton to present her duty to the Queen and inform her that she has been unable to find any information on the Duchess of Ancaster. Lady Caroline Egerton has not heard anything 'but the message from the House that she was as well as could be expected, from which at least one may conclude she has hitherto escaped the infection'.</p><p style='text-align: justify;'>Finch reports that their Royal Highnesses are well and that she has just taken leave of them. She is pleased that it has been such fine day and writes that the King and Queen must have found the Terrace delightful. The gardens have been full and amongst the company there she has heard that Lord Shelbourne is to be married in a week's time. Finch ends her letter with her hopes that Hamilton's 'Royal trio' are well.</p><p style='text-align: justify;'>Dated at Kew.</p>
