See her entry in the Oxford DNB. 3pp, 12mo. 31 lines of text. In fair condition, lightly aged. Folded twice for postage. Signed ?Mary Adelaide?. She has seen Russell's ?envoy??, who had ?planned a road, which he assures me cannot be objected to, and can easily be intro-duced [sic] into and carried out with your proposed alterations?. She notes a gate in a wall, which is to be ?made opposite the turn of the road towards our stables, so as to give room for the turn?, and hopes Russell will ?look over the plan before it is again shown? to her, and she is sending ?the very stiff and uncivil reply to our requisitions?, which she hopes he will ?carefully consider & then call here and convince your self of the truth of my memoranda?.
