Autograph letter signed from Hannah Cowley to Monsieur Quétant [manuscript], 1778? June 20.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/713393985

Has read Quétant's charming translation of Steele's comedy Les amants réservés; would like him to do the same for her. Encloses The maid of Arragon; it has not sold sufficiently to encourage her to finish it. It is the many whom she writes for. Some reflections on the Biographia Britannica and its author.
