Letter to Lady Lucy Taylor : Walmer Castle : ALS, 1803 Nov. 8.

Signing herself only "HS", she congratulates her sister on the birth of "another dear little nephew" and complains that, with "Camp or reviews all day long", she has "never one moment to spare." Mentions Lord and Lady Chatham and William Pitt, who wants her to see "a Prize or a French gun boat full of Rascals." (See Burney Collection correspondence, Rare Books Department).

2 p. ; 25 x 40 cm.
