Letter to David Sherlock, 7 Mountjoy Square West, from his mother at Bagne
di Lucca, Tuscany, describing the area and her activates. The heat is very
oppressive and she has to have regulated hours rising at 5 and retiring after
dinner to escape it. She takes very little exercise as it is so hot but urges him
and Betsey to take exercise. She intends to ride a donkey when the air gets
cooler. Bagne di Lucca (a Spa town) is full of people and offers plenty of
amusement. Mentions some of the illustrious visitors including the Queen
Dowager of Sardinia. Inquires about family members and requests him to
attend to some business matters for her.
