Description:
|
Frederick Hamilton writes that he has received a letter from Robert Greville, enclosing one from Colonel Newton from the 10th Dragoons noting a vacancy of a cornetcy [the lowest rank of non-commissioned officer] which General Pitt desires to offer to his son. As a consequence of this he is required to pay Messrs Cox & Greenwood [agents to the Regiment] the sum of ?1102.10 which is 'the limited price by the King's regulation'. Mr Dickenson has offered to loan Frederick the money and the letter discusses Frederick's suggestions for securing the loan. Dated at Oxford Street.
