[Marquess Camden [John Jeffreys Pratt, 1st Marquis Camden], Tory politician.] Autograph Letter Signed reminding the recipient of his offer to send him a sketch of Holwood House.

See his entry in the Oxford DNB. The present item is not in the best of condition: it is aged and creased (including dog-eared corner on which the signature ‘Camden’ is written), with contemporary repair to two long tears by the laying down on the blank reverse of strips from a contemporary manuscript. Docketed on the otherwise blank second leaf: ‘25th July 1824 / Marquis Camden’. Writing from the town house of the Marquis of Londonderry to an unnamed recipient, regarding William Pitt the Younger’s country house: ‘You were so kind, when I had the pleasure of meeting you, at Lord Londonderry, to offer to send me a sketch which had been made, of Holwood[.] I was much obliged to you for the Intention, you expressed & I beg to remind you of it, as it may have escaped your Recollection. I beg you to believe me / Yours most sincerely / Camden’.
