Description:
Letter from Anna Maria Clarke who writes from Hamilton's mother's fireside. Mrs Hamilton is somewhat better today and the doctor had been the previous night and gave them 'great encouragement'. She has been given new medicine which they hope will agree with her. Her mother also sends Hamilton's instructions to write to Mr Leathenstone for money and to her Uncle to acquaint him that the 'Land may be let'. Clarke continues with news of her sisters and on the pleasure that it will give her to see Hamilton in a few days. She notes that Mrs Glover (HAM/1/13) sends her love and to tell you 'that she is glad her Dove is returned'. Clarke continues to note that she is never alone and that Hamilton's mother and Mr and Mrs Glover are always with her and she wishes that Hamilton herself was also with them. Leonides (Mr Glover) sends Hamilton his love and says that he 'cannot have any pleasure but that of thinking of you and drinking your Health'.
