Letter from Daniel Dakeyne jun. from London to Daniel Dakeyne at Darley Dale his journey to town in the mail coach was more agreeable than travelling in the heavy coach "The mail admitting but four inside passengers gives an opportunity of leaning into a corner…whereas in the heavy one, one may chance to fall to a middle seat beside the disadvantage of being a longer time upon the road"; has managed to procure a reader's ticket for the British Museum, where reading is from 11am to 3pm, five days a week; has found several things which tend to reflect strongly on William Dakeyn who is styled the lewd usurper of the office of Norroy King of Arms; spent nearly the whole of Saturday in Doctors Commons, transcribing (with great difficulty) old wills. PS "preserve this letter lest I should lose my notes by any accident" 20 Nov 1792
