From John Parker, Saltram to Frederick Robinson:

2 Apr 1788

From: 1788 To: 1788

Mr Andrewes returning at end of week. Leaving his house in Leicester in care of servants. State of Lord Boringdon's health. Very poor. They are anxious; Mr Young's opinion giving them cause for concern. Feels it his duty to inform Robinson as Nanny may not due to Boringdon reading her letters before they are sent. Lymington invited him to hear him speak. Rode to see him one day with Mr Roberts. Hope Robinson's works are begun and proceed well. Why does Monsieur de Lazell[?] continue no longer as Ambassador, when Sir James Harris does? Aunt Nanny and sister ask for news of Mrs and Miss Harris. Henry Ley there today, his brother is still at Bath; went there with the Speaker of the House of Commons. Richards and Smith, the two men who murdered a clerk of the Dock yard, are hung in chains, Mr Stoke and others from all over the country come to see them. Hasn't been himself yet.
