Description:
From Anne Murray. The letter relates to the death of the Duchess of Portland, Margaret Cavendish Bentinck, n?e Harley, (1715-1785), collector of art and natural history specimens, (HAM/1/7/11) and its effect on Mrs Delany. Murray sympathizes at the manner in which Mrs Delany has to 'support herself under the severest blows'. Murray writes that she will wait on Mrs Delany as soon she can once Lord Mansfield has returned from circuit as they have no carriage. Murray takes it for 'granted' that Mrs Boscawen has already seen Mrs Delany who had visited them the past evening in the 'deepest affliction' who said that she would wait on Mrs Delany the following morning. Murray concludes her letter by hoping that the death of the Duchess has not affected Hamilton's health.
