Description:
William Napier writes to Hamilton with news that he has sent his 'Globes' to her by coach and that she will soon receive the 'World, which I lay at the feet of the only young Lady who in my opinion deserves it'. Napier continues that he was unable to pick up a copy of La Vie des Peintres in time for her but has asked a friend to get a copy for him. He also hopes to send soon a copy of Mrs Carter's Poems. As to whether he will be able to get copies of those that have not yet been printed he is unsure although he notes that if Mrs Carter knew Hamilton as well as he does 'I make no doubt of obliging her sister Excellence'. Napier continues his letter informing Hamilton that he will soon leave for Canterbury and that he hopes to receive a letter from Hamilton there. Dated at Wittingham.
