The Mary Hamilton Papers

<p style='text-align: justify;'>Letter from Louisa Murray, Lady Stormont, to Mary Hamilton. The letter is concerned with general news, including a regimental parade that Stormont attended. Stormont writes on her daughter's health and of an upcoming visit by her sister and notes that she has not been at Court since the weather has been so hot as she did not feel 'equal to it'. She also writes of a review of Colonel Harcourt's Regiment that she attended. She saw the King and the princes there and that they enquired after Hamilton. She has no news to report on the Prince of Wales birthday excepting what is in the papers. Stormont ends her letter informing Hamilton that Lord Stormont has read the poems that Hamilton had recommended and that he liked them and that they hope that she will 'bring us something to add to our collection'.</p><p style='text-align: justify;'>Dated at Wandsworth Hill.</p>
