Description:
|
Hope writes Hamilton a long autobiographical letter which he wrote whilst in 'confinement' for debt. He begins with the date of his marriage which he describes as being the commencement of his 'misfortunes.' In the letter Hope asks Hamilton to write a letter of support on his behalf. On the back of the sheet Hamilton has written 'This Paper to be presented and returned to the author, if demanded by him'.
