APPENDIX F. 



Seymour Place, Is;: Jvly 1763. 



My dear George, — Upon my return from Newmarket 

 last Wednesday I found your letter, by which I finU you 

 wholly despair of me. Whether I shall come or not is 

 rather uncertain. If I do, it will be immediately after 

 Huntingdon, which is the last week in this month. 



I did not go to Woburn, so I have that visit to make. 

 This week I have been in waiting, and to-day, being 

 Friday, I have nothing further to do. The king did not 

 take his Lord of the Bedchamber to the review last 

 Monday, so that I had that day and Tuesday at New- 

 market. The horse-guards are to be reviewed next Mon- 

 day ; Elliott's the Monday following. 



Since this letter was begun I have been at Madame de 

 Boufflers, who returned last night from her expedition to 

 Woburn and Wakefield, and seems perfectly satisfied with 

 everything here. Beauclerk was at Woburn. She goes 

 on Sunday to stay a week with Lady Holderness at Sion 

 Hill in Lord H.'s absence, who sets out to-morrow for 

 Yorkshire, and the 23rd for Paris. Williams suspects 

 you begin to be a little seccatmed, and that you would like 

 as well to sit down to Saunders' turtle, which is just 

 going to be served up, as to any dinner you can have 

 where you are. I know of nothing new or entertaining to 

 send you. Everything goes on as when you left us, and I 

 am always as much as possible, — Your faithful and affec- 

 tionate friend, 



M. AND E.
