TALBOT1776

Dear M^r Talbot

M^r Hopper’s ¹ direction is as follows – “Thomas Hopper Esqr 35 Connaught Terrace Edgeware Road”. He is at present out of Town at “Charles Tyrrell’s Esqr Polstead Hall Colchester” I mentioned to M^r Hopper² that you had some thoughts of employing him at which he seemed to be very much pleased & flattered. In case you visit Wales I enclose a card to admit you at once through the Lodge at Penrhyn I hope we may happen to be in that country when you come.

Yrs truly
