TitleRichard FitzHerbert to his father, Sir Henry: "William wrote to me on Monday to beg that I would not deceive you in any way about my reading. I feel that amidst the temptations to be idle at Cambridge, I never could read sufficiently to get an honour .... Since I received William's letter, I have thought over what profession I should like, and if you have no objection, my choice is made for the army, for I am sure that I should never have diligence enough to get on either in the law, or as a physician ...". 4 May
