Content Description

The manoeuvres are taking up a great deal of his time; he shall be very grateful to receive Lawrence's "cadeau"; he is very pleased that Lawrence thinks so highly of Selina's picture that he wants it engraved, he will talk to Selina if she is alarmed at being "in the window of a print shop"; he asks for six impressions and insists on adding them to his bill at Colnaghi's, where he already awaits a print of the D. of Wellington; Ward's minitaure of Selina has arrived safely; he speaks highly of a local sculptor, Rauch, who has completed a monumental bronze of Blücher.
