  • Scope and Content
    Lord Marchmont has just now received a letter from Mr Bolding telling him that your ladyship desires he would send down some person with proper directions for Lord Polwarth's funeral. Lord Marchmont knows not how to execute such general directions, coming to him in such a manner. Your ladyship he doubts not can now be advised how to be more particular, and Lord Marchmont desires you to be assured that whatever can give you satisfaction shall meet with no difficulty that he can with propriety prevent. My dear Lady Bell, I feel your distress, and indeed my own affliction is as great as I have fortitude to support, and am so ill that we go tomorrow to Hempstead for a few days in hopes of the air's doing me good, and you may depend upon my waiting upon you as soon as we return, and beg a further direction as soon as possible you can.
