<p style='text-align: justify;'>Letter from Lady Frances Harpur to Mary Hamilton. The letter relates to a request for charitable assistance from Hamilton for a man named Worral who a number of years previously had been Harpur's coachman and he and his wife are described as very industrious. Mrs Worrall [<i>sic</i>] is now very ill and is obliged to 'have a person to attend her which is a great Expense to him'. Mr Worrell wishes to get medical advice for his wife but is unable to afford to do so and Harpur notes that she does not subscribe to the hospitals. She asks Hamilton if she will be able to obtain a letter of recommendation to a hospital as an out-patient for Mrs Worrall.</p>
