The Mary Hamilton Papers
<p style='text-align: justify;'>Letter from William Napier, 7th Lord Napier, to Mary Hamilton. He has returned home from Buxton and has found his youngest girls well. Lady Napier and the other children are visiting Lord Cathcart, and he proposes to go there the following day and bring them home a few days afterwards. He thanks Hamilton for her letter and replies to something that she had written him by noting that he had assumed that she would be in Margate, sea-bathing. He continues his letter on the subject of his health, referring to the gout as ‘his Gentleman’. He has had his legs blistered and writes that they are so sore, he can hardly move them.</p><p style='text-align: justify;'>Dated at Edinburgh.</p>
