TALBOT6663

Dummer House July 16 -

Dear Sir,

I regret that I should have omitted to state that our holidays that begin on the 25^th, Monday; I have been waiting to see if anything was fixed about Montgomeries's going down to Glasgow,¹ and it is now arranged that a servant shall accompany him down on the 26^th, by express train, reaching Kendal Junction at 5^h..5^m - at least such I believe is settled, but there is a little uncertainty as to whether - I can procure a Tutor also, which might alter the plan - Now I propose that Charles should sleep in London at Lord Eglinton's house, (which is empty) on Monday night, & L^d E^s servant would drop him at Kendal - I would myself go up to London on the Monday, & arrange with the Servant about his journey &c and have also written to Lady Eglinton, to ask her to give Charles a bed - Unless I therefore hear form you, that you prefer any other place I will carry out this - and also write should there be any change.

I have but just time to answer by return of post, so hope you will excuse haste

And am, dear Sir, Yours truly
James A. Williams
