Description:
Gunning writes on general news. Her sister has returned from Bath with good news of Hamilton's health and the birth of Hamilton's daughter. She also writes of books and of attending a lecture given by Mr Walker. She intended to go to accompany Lady Carlisle's daughter who had not attended before but she found 'great pleasure in recollecting what I formerly new (sic), & fixing that knowledge in my mind'. The letter continues on Gunnings daily routine. She is constantly engaged in the evenings 'but very little in the world'. She sees the Queen twice a week, and sometimes attends the Opera. Dated at St James's.
