TitleLetter from Georgiana, Duchess of Devonshire, to W Phipps [later Sir Jonathan Wathen Waller]
Date1798
DescriptionThanks for his letter, although having a coldness of address, which is deserved: her neglect of him causing her the most anxiety in her painful situation: no need of reserve to tell him all her money being used for her sister's family's arrangements: her not being able to write or talk about money matters, on which subject he is much superior: her owing £400 plus interest, as well as £100 for attendance last year: hope of paying £120 next week and £50 monthly until the whole is paid: request for him not to mention it to Mr Wathen, in case he doubts her: her knowledge of having acquired a true friend, one for whom she has given a large portion of friendship and regard: her being in town on Wednesday, with hope of seeing him.
Endorsed as being 1798, numbered No. 6.
