Part of Papers of Richard Monckton Milnes, Lord Houghton
Thornes House. - 'Here comes Punch, but alas! no Judy' - Mary [her sister in law?] has a bad sore throat, and there is a 'cry against my leaving the Greeks' [her children?]. She and Mary had 'resolved on rebellion had we been able to bring our combined forces into action, nobody will believe me that a long evening drive is good for my health', and she would have enjoyed Milnes's lecture. But she must 'submit' and wish him 'every sort of success' and sympathy for his efforts on behalf of 'your honourable Neighbours'.
