TitleLetter to Rev Thomas Wright, from Elizabeth Garland, Scotland Yard;
Date11 Feb 1755
DescriptionThanks for payment in advance; Thomas Wright ought to go to Scarborough for his complaint, when waters are in season; no comfortable answer can be given about the election of Thomas Wright's neighbour Byram and his brother Thomas; on 22nd there is to be another motion to give it a hearing this session of Parliament, but Lord Thanett's alliances are so numerous that justice may come lagging behind; the Lowther witnesses are in London at great expense, but a long purse has been extended by old Sir James's division between young Sir James and Sir William Lowther of Holkar (county Lancs.) [husband of Mrs. Lowther].
