Content Description
He has been lucky enough to secure a bronze gilt Greek statue, dug up in Normandy; his account of its acquisition is a long one and he is unable to say what it cost him; he hopes he sell it to "our"
Museum, but anticipates trouble getting it out of the country; he has seen Soult's collection again and stands by his opinion;
Lord Gower is to tell him when the portrait arrives.
