The Mary Hamilton Papers

<p style='text-align: justify;'>Letter from Harriet de Salis to Mary Hamilton. She writes that the previous day was very foggy and she was told that it was also very cold, so she decided against riding and instead chose to write. She almost changed her mind but was glad that she did not, as she has a slight cold. She writes that it is as cold again today and that she has been advised not to go out riding. She has received a letter from 'Doll', who notes that the cold wind has affected her cough again. Doll writes with family news including on the High Sheriff who is describes as a 'near-relation'.</p>
