  <dc:title>Personal letter from Sir William Gell to Philip Gell</dc:title>
  <dc:description>From General Maitland's Manderston, Duns, North Britain. Offers Philip 2 beautiful Turkish or Persian greyhound puppies, 3 months old. Gell has been appointed by the Dilettanti to go to Ionia to examine Aphrodisias, Miletus, Laodicea, Myindus, Patara, etc and to make another volume to his Ionian antiquities. Has £1000 and a painter to begin with, his expenses paid, and £50 a month besides the honour. Puzzled to find architectural painter. King [George III] is in no danger as long as he does not break a blood vessel in his paroxysms</dc:description>
