Description:
Letter from Mrs Eleanor Glover to Mary Hamilton, on the death of Richard Glover. Glover writes that she not only loves but admires Hamilton for her ‘amiable disposition’ that she has been ‘bless[e]d with’ and for her feelings that she has for her and her daughter Mary. Glover is too upset to write upon her loss at the moment. His ‘character in life is too great to be slightly touch[e]d upon’. Glover touches on Richard Glover as an excellent parent, husband and friend but notes that she has to stop her pen on the subject.
The letter continues on how Glover left his affairs and on his son, also named Richard and on his poor conduct.
Dated at Albemarle Street, [London].
