6 Feb 1784

From: 1784 To: 1784

Mrs. Waddilove's gradual recovery. [Son] Tom's speech slow etc.... "The Hol. I though was called the Hospital for Incurables, but it may now be as properly applied to the H. Of C.". How does the new County MP of Yorkshire vote? Are Mr. L.[Lawrence] and F. Robinson together? Waddilove's name not amongst the 125 fro Ripon, leaves Dr. W. To sign for the Church of Ripon on all these occasions. Robinson more popular with his Constituents than Lawrence. His Grace of Yorke very kind in putting Laborde "in his Element at Paris...who does he recommend to Lord Chesterfield" he should take his Relation George Allanson from Ripon.. Robert Croft gets the Stall and Resp. [Residentiaryship] at York. Sent a guinea to Topcliffe [for the poor]. Grantham may reimburse him through his account at Messrs. Martins. Failed attempts to get over to Newby [Park] due to snow. Horner, Warren House, Mr. Cowper's bridge mentioned. Made it to Topcliffe once on foot, no attempt since. Old Mr. Metcalf's and Mr. Rockcliffe's father dead. Mr. Browne has exchanged his Living. Major Duff has a share of £20,000 and safe from Gibraltar.
