The Mary Hamilton Papers
<p style='text-align: justify;'>Letter from Francis Napier, 8th Lord Napier, to Mary Hamilton. He was prevented from seeing Hamilton that morning and is to return to Tewin Water that afternoon. He is waiting to hear from General Conway about his position in the army and because of the delay he doubts that he will be successful and thus he is to return to the country so that he will not be ‘absolutely ruined’.</p>
