Content Description

Announcing the death of James Butler, who was on his way to England from Naples, via Rome; before his death Butler enlisted Humphry's assistance in a commission to employ a singer for the comic opera in London; as Carabaldi is too ill to travel Humphry instructed Charles Wiseman to find Lovatini in Bologna; if the recipients do not empower Mr. Barazzi to execute the contract the negotiations will fail, he has advanced some money on the matter himself.
