Hopkinson writes to the artist explaining that he cannot do much to help in disposing of "The Sortie Made by the Garrison of Gibraltar;" "it is [too] English ... to have any charms for the American heart." He also comments on the terms of the lottery Trumbull was proposing for selling the painting.
