Letter from Richard Orlebar, Podington to Frederica glad Frederica stronger cleaning nearly done Beauchamp too busy to go to Droitwich

3 June 1889

From: 1889 To: 1889

Rouse is doubtful: he may have to go to Honington, to meet Macqueens, if they go there, as is half expected on Monday next; the Galbraiths having asked R to meet Macqueen in hopes of a possibility of Macqueen finding some appointment for him. R wrote to Ld Burghley on Sunday a letter which will give Lord B an opening for saying whether he wants the agency any longer. R has just got out his balance sheet for the year, showing £700 improvement on the year before he took things over. Rouse slept at Burghley for big Militia mess dinner, going to Militia Ball Lizzie O sent blue sergeback for Frederica’s knitting hope enjoyed Wombwells (Circus) suggest giving £1 to Bedford Club appeal for £500 wrote to his mother for ‘Hunstanton’ ticket for Tom Westley (ill) Rouse to speak at Primrose League meeting at Harrold suggests all living together at The Lodge if he fails to get an agency
