Part of Papers of Richard Monckton Milnes, Lord Houghton
'Mr Green's fresh paint makes him unapproachable, whereby all the rules of the Club* are nullified'; asterisk below with the footnotes: 'There are but two. I. The Club shall dine at Mr Green's. II. On giving Mr Green notice'. The Secretary [John Sterling?] 'is gone over to Rome (though only for the winter) - and the Club is thus left without Law or Govt'. A 'Rump Steak Committee has been app[ointe]d to look to the Republick'; all those that choose can dine at Mr Cattrip's, Covent Garden, next Thursday at 7 '-Steaks, Stout & Ale ad lib. for 5/6 a head: those who drink wine do so at their own responsibility'.
In Monckton Milnes' hand?
