Content Description

She discusses the press exposure of Lawrence's friendship with Mrs. W. and his naming of Wolff to her; she hopes Campbell will soon silence the public; she trusts that Croft and Mr. Keightley will find much of interest in Lawrence's private memoirs, including scraps of poetry, the like of which she has previously transcribed; she is sorry Lawrence did not remember Croft in his will, she herself received drawings by him each year; she asks after prints that Lawrence promised to her before her death.
