Draper, Margate to Frederick Robinson Writes, "[Your letter] has made me very unhappy for fear the unfortunate affair which has happened should involve you in difficulties that may not easily be got over, and make the remainder of your residence not so agreeable as it has hitherto been, but I flatter myself, from your Lordship's letter, that the affair will end as well as possible after the shooting accident which has happened and cannot in itself be remedied." [See L 30/17/2/120]. Grantham may depend on Draper's care and attention to the affairs of Sir Norton to have them settled as is best for Grantham's interest. Will see Wilmot in town about Sir Norton's affairs. "God knows how the American Affairs will end, but if they are not favourably settled very soon, I fear the arrears of the Civil List will be forgot." Will buy some books to send when able.
