  <dc:title>Letter by John Richardson to John Franklin, on travelling home, meeting runaway boy from Glasgow and disappointment that Franklin was not coming to Scotland yet</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Reports delight at visiting York "Cathedral" on day they parted. Arrived in Dumries yesterday; describes meeting in Westmorland a ragged bare-footed boy who was running away from his home in Glasgow and heading south.  Refers to reports of Franklin having had intention of visiting Edinburgh and Dumfries: Franklin's change of plan will cause disappointment.  Expresses a positive opinion of Lincolnshire countryside in comparison with Scotland. Regards of Mrs Richardson also sent to Franklin and Miss Porden. P.S. He wishes he could persuade "a certain fair Lady" to express a wish to visit Scotland. </dc:description>
