Description:
Letter from Charlotte Finch to Mary Hamilton. She writes that she has picked up her pen to write to Hamilton as soon as she had read her letter ‘at the risk of tormenting [...] [Hamilton] with a very stupid one’. The letter relates to the views and landscape of the area around Deal Castle. Finch writes of the Royal children who she states are prepared to receive all the instructions that she is capable to give. She reports that her daughter Mrs Fielding, is bringing her young daughter to reside with them and that she is very contented. She asks Hamilton to write her with information about herself and that she will write on the subject of how she spends her time but does not promise ‘the uniformity’ that Hamilton is accustomed to.
