  • Scope and Content
    Feeling better, out in Chaise, appetite for Perch & Mouton. Fine morning, every breeze evoking Mr. Gray's plagiarism. Grantham hard upon Hyde, cousin Tancred sells good potatoes. Sorry for Harry Broderick, did William borrow any of Fritz's Spanish books "sobre las Indias." Connection between Coxes & Masters, met former at Whitehall. Writing to Saltram. Glad Tom well & Harry better, if he continues nervous must pair off on long nights. Doesn't like account of Mrs. Allanson. Reform of Parliament; sorry Pitt thinks so much depends upon it etc... Subscriptions to Brookes; in same position as Grantham, but owes only two years. Will unwillingly give up membership. Mrs. Waddilove tolerably well. Tom is "less contradicted than a Dauphin of France" management may render him docile. Siere to Newby, takes advantage of moon.
