Description:
Hamilton has received a letter in response of her own of 28 June 1782 and is now in doubt at Gunning's affection for her (see HAM/1/15/2/21) and that she had not know she was so ill. She advises her to take care of herself and suggests riding on horseback would be beneficial to her as 'exercise without fatigue will restore your strength better than medicines'. She continues with news of friends, including the rumour of a proposal of marriage to Miss Murray and the news that Lady Dartrey is currently staying at the Queens House but that Hamilton is only able to see her in the drawing room. She reports that the Princess Royal is well and ends her letter in noting that she will send her a letter from 'Perfecta' (Lady Charlotte Finch) for her amusement but that she must return it and not show it anyone.
