Letter from John Campbell, 3rd Earl Breadalbane, Lord Glenorchy to Alexander Hume-Campbell, 1st Baron Hume of Berwick. Sent from Edinburgh. Left Taymouth in great beauty, but with not the least regret.

4 Nov 1779

From: 1779 To: 1779

Writer is like a recluse - 'I go airing in a carriage thrust into and dragged out of it, but I make no visits, books are my chief companions.' Mention of a muting in the West Fencible Regiment commanded by Lord Frederick Campbell. The whole body is so penitant and ashamed that the private me have offered to go abroad and serve the king anywhere.
