From Anne, Saltram to Frederick, Whitehall:

18 Jul 1780

From: 1780 To: 1780

Received her brother's and the little boy's letters, glad he has been in St. James's Square and that they were so well pleased with each other. Proposed trip of the little Boy to Saltram, in hopes Mr. Ley would bring him. Frederick's situation too uncertain. Aunt Stainforth sent a good account of her Company. Anne longs to be confirmed in her good opinion of Lady Mary [Pelham?] by a more intimate friendship with her. Lord Ossory dined yesterday. Impressed with the place despite water being out when he came and an evening fog. Gone with Mr. Parker today to be introduced to the Generals and show him the Camp. He means to make "this" his headquarters. Lady Ossory left at Teignmouth. Mr. Fortescue and Sir Charles Bampfylde there. Expecting the Greys to dinner. Towed on Sunday, went on board one of the ten French prizes in Catwater. Little girl behaved well, breakfasted with them in Mr. Parker's tent, beginning to take her brother's place. She says she will like her new Aunt very much. Lord Hardwick has called in to Sackville St.
