A propos de cet article

c.58 lines on 4pp 4to. Blackburne writes a long chatty letter, from Park St. West (almost certainly in January 1786). John Blackburne, 1754-1833, of Hale Hall, Liverpool, High Sheriff of Lancashire 1781-82, M.P. for Lancashire 1784-1830, succeeding Sir Thomas Grey Egerton (elevated as Baron Grey de Wilton) M.P., who accompanied him on this visit. Reporting on his visit to Windsor with Egerton to present an Address to the King from the City of Manchester concerning a ban on the import of English cloth into Flanders. A detailed, gossipy, account of an afternoon with King George III and Queen Charlotte and members of the Court at Windsor Castle. 'The King was most gracious as was the Queen. They both inquired after you and the Queen hoped you and family were well. The King said he never saw anyone more tired of London than you were and hoped you had recovered. I am so delighted with their Majesties I can scarce write anything else. He seemed uncommonly pleased with the Manchester Address for the Delegates. I never did a better thing in my life than go round by Windsor.' Blackburne reports on the illness of Princess Elizabeth ('Dr. James's Powder cured her'). 'Sir G. Webster poisoned himself but recovered from proper remedies. Mr Smith proves older than was expected being 51 years of age - I suppose Miss. begins now to find him a slack lover. I go tomorrow to Edmonton. Lord Grey meets me on Saturday at St. Albans.' Blackburne writes from his new house, built with green wood 'which has shrunk', but 'very neat and clean'. With other references to Mrs Thorpe, Lady Cunliffe, Mr Parry, Robert Jones, Mr Fell, Lord Palmerston, Mr Atkinson and Mr Rose. Blackburne ends with a sharp P.S. promising to write tomorrow but 'not a word from you'. PLEASE NOTE: For customers within the UK this item is subject to VAT at 20%.…
