From 2nd Baron Grantham, Aranjuez to Anne [Nanny] Robinson:

11 Jun 1776

From: 1776 To: 1776

Thank Mr. Parker for the beer and cider. Compliments from the Lady for whom it was requested. Satisfaction from the accounts of the children. Land around Clifton is for sale; inherited by Lady Robinson [Dorothy R. née Thornhill?] from Sir William Robinson [?cousin]. Worth 113£ per annum and situated in such a place that they should not go from the entailed estate. Sorry for the accounts the of Aislabies. Pelhams’ house full of measles. Tom a naturally chilly person, will soon feel heat. At Toledo found great improvements. Dined ill with a good Archbishop. Sir Thomas and Mr. Swinburne left Madrid last week. Mr. Parker's letter speaks so affectionately of her that Grantham notes it. Fritz is touched by the mention of himself. Affectionate return. Love from Tom also.
