| Description | Written from Hanover, addressed to Phippy.
Enclosure of letter, not knowing where to direct it, with no word as to whether Mrs B [?Bankes]. is going to let her place at Sheen and to go to Dorset or not: Richmond and Kew being most delightful, with his wish to be there now, for as a country seat [Kew] it is now habitable:enquiry as to whether he has parted with any of his horses: hearing from letters the hopes Waller and Alexander still have hope for Sophia's recovery: prudent decision of the Dowager Queen not to go to Malta for the winter, supposing Lord Howe will accompany her, it being awkward for him having so many young children: his having much state business to do and surprised at his health supporting what he has to go through.
