Fine Letter Signed to Mr MacMillan
saying that "our friend Maurice has brought me a book from you as a present. Very strange to say it is a perfect copy of a work that I have long wanted. I had a copy when a boy, but for the last few years I have been on the look out for another as I am anxious to collect all the works I can that bear upon the military achievements of William III and of Anne's reign. We have no copy of 'Story' either in the War Office, or United Service Institute, nor in the London Library, so your present supplies me with what I value very much. Thank you many times ... I hope this cold summer is not making you suffer from your old enemy ...", 3 sides 8vo., 6 Hill Street, 21st June
