LANSDOWNE
(William Petty-Fitzmaurice, 1st Marquess of Lansdowne, 2nd Earl of Shelburne, 1737-1805, Prime Minister)
Rare Autograph Letter Signed “Lansdowne” to an unnamed correspondent
saying that he is “very sorry that you should have the trouble of calling at my door so frequently as you mention without finding me, but I have been latterally out of town, and when I am in town I always go out at one o’clock unless prevented. I have the honour to inclose to you a draft to pay my subscription to Dr Cromford’s family, and I took the liberty of sending you the different epitaphs which have been sent me. I never rec’d the Latin Epitaph which is mentioned nor do I think there would be any propriety in a Latin Epitaph to be read in a retir’d Country Churchyard. If it depended upon me I should prefer the simplest of them, or one perhaps still more simple, but whatever epitaph Mrs Cromford and her friends preferr, I will take care to have properly executed this summer when I go into Hampshire...”, 2 sides 4to, Berkley Square, Sunday night, no date annotated in another hand
