Description:
Gunning writes asking Hamilton whether she is dead or simply away from London. Gunning has agreed to direct her letters to Sir William Wake and as not yet received a reply from Hamilton and asks if the letters have fallen into Sir Wake's hands and not reached her. She understands that Sir Wake has bought a house in Essex and wishes to know if Hamilton intends to spend her Summer there with them. Gunning sends Hamilton a pattern for a border and asks her to go to Hodgkins to purchase her the material. She continues with general news of the weather and of friends, writing that she has so many 'visits hanging over me, that I feel quite pressed with them'.
