Title
Letter from Andrew Hay, Edinburgh, to to George Mundy RN
Date
14 Nov 1810
Description
Discusses his health, his reasons for visiting Scotland and the difficulties of the journey. Thanks “Mr Mundy and yourself for your kind offer”. Was astonished by the letter discovered among the papers of Mr Radford. Suggests only temporary insanity could have led him “to pen such a pile of scurrility and falsehood”. Mr McKenzie will not be returning to sea as his farming is profitable.
