The Mary Hamilton Papers

<p style='text-align: justify;'>Letter from Nina Herries, on behalf of Lady Catherine Herries, to John Dickenson, informing him of a proposed visit to Lisbon. She thanks him and Mary Hamilton for their letter. The Herrieses are in a 'bustle' at the moment, as they are preparing to travel to Falmouth and from there to go on the Lisbon Packet, and will make their way to meet Sir Robert Herries in Lisbon. Sir Robert has to stay in Spain longer than expected and wishes Nina and Lady Herries to join him. The journey is being hastily organised, had it not been the case Lady Herries would certainly have written the letter to inform them herself.</p><p style='text-align: justify;'>Dated at St. James's Street, [London].</p>
