Epigraph

Indulging myself in the freedom of epistolary intercourse,
I beg leave to throw out my thoughts, and express my feelings,
just as they arise in my mind, with very little attention to formal method.
BURKE

Dedication

This volume is dedicated by its grateful editor to his old and dear friends DIANA and JOCK MURRAY

First words

I am happy to report that the second volume of this correspondence was sufficiently approved to justify the publication of another year's worth.

Introduction.

Bromsden Farm
Henley-on-Thames

My dear George
Many happy returns of the day.
