Autograph letter signed from Charles Pratt, Earl of Camden, Camden Place, to Garrick [manuscript], 1777 August 11.

Thanks him for his letter and the Welsh painter. Is returning Sheridan's verses. His (Garrick's) Birmingham counterfeit has stole his buskin ... but he will soon see him stript to the skin and exposed in all his Scotch nakedness [probably a reference to Henderson].
