GRENVILLE

saying that much illness, joined, unfortunately for me, with much business, has prevented me from taking, as I had wished, an earlier opportunity of expressing my thanks to you for the two volumes which you have had the goodness to send to me & also of the lines on Mr Canning. I sincerely condole with you on the severe domestic loss which you mention. I have taken the liberty to direct an L.P. copy (of which a limited number only were printed privately) of a small tract which I have lately published, to be forwarded to you from London...., 2 sides 8vo., ?, 22nd April
