Letter from Mary Yorke to Lady Lucas, sent from Great Malvern. Enjoyed Lady Lucas' visit to Forthampton, and looks forward to her visiting again.

9 Oct 1810

From: 1810 To: 1810

Comments relating to Great Malvern. Thanks for the political information contained in Lady Lucas' letter; son James never believes anything he reads in the newspapers and is apt to look with a rather melancholy eye upon the present state of affairs and the situation of Lord Wellington. Mention of Lucien Bonaparte. The conspiracy in and about Lisbon seems to be more extensive that was at first imagined. The Cambridges being at Malden has proved a pleasant circumstance.
