Description:
Napier writes with general news of friends and acquaintances. He writes that it is as impossible for him not to refrain from writing to her as it is impossible for her not to be ‘saucy’. Napier informs Hamilton of the birth of a daughter to the Duchess of Gloucester. On a visit to St Albans Napier dines at the White Horse where the landlady enquired after Hamilton and her mother. She mistook Napier for one of Hamilton’s Uncles ‘by my likeness to the Hamilton’s’ and that she seemed very fond of him and talked of Hamilton with some enthusiasm that it began to ‘fatigue’ him. Napier writes that everyone seems to be fond of Hamilton but that he will drop the subject in case she thinks that he has ‘taken up’ Colonel Bland’s form of flattery (see HAM/1/19/36). Dated at London.
