Content Description

The writer observed Humphry's directions and was led to the two persons who arrived in Combe from London, who "had sculk'd into a backroom at the George". It was supposed the man had been head of the mob at Somerset House, the woman wore a blue gown and it is thought she was of Lord G. Gordon's party. The matter will be concluded at the assizes.

The pictures arrived almost undamaged and everyone is impressed by them. He sent some covers to Humphry's mother, who appeared vetry well.
