| Title | Personal letter from Sir William Gell to sister-in-law, Mrs Georgiana Gell. Gell is sorry to hear uncle is dangerously ill. Gives dimensions of his windows at Cambridge: they are 9ft high from ground to ceiling. If there is enough stuff, the valance should be the same kind of linen the curtains are. Will she come to Cambridge? If so, she shall have `no less than two legs of mutton on a plate'. Georgiana may propose for Gell to Miss Arkwright if she likes. Urges her to write soon and tell `la monstera' to do the same. [Postmark: Cambridge] |
