From James Harris, Berlin to Frederick Robinson, Spain:

21 Jul 1777

From: 1777 To: 1777

Informing them of his marriage to Miss Amyand (Harriet Maria Amyand?) next Monday. Thoughts on situation. Still can't believe it's going to happen after so many previous incidents. Has communicated all this to his Spanish correspondence [Madame de Bejar] a highly esteemed and valuable friend. Just going to be bled, precautionary measure, chest pain still there. Going abroad in domestic happiness makes him indifferent as to when and where he goes. Brief comment on American situation. Miss Amyand daughter to Sir George Amyand, sister to Sir George Cornewal and Lady Elliott. She is 17 and her fortune from £25-£30,000. Assurance he will not be more inattentive married than single.
