Scope and content

Missed Bland's letter whilst visiting Serlby but hopes he secured seed. Game birds at Bawtry. William Fenton has placed Rodes in the Wyvills' best room at Mannheim, where he will stay a year if he lives, which is doubtful; Travers urged Rodes to withdraw slowly from wine and spirits but he was drinking a bottle of brandy a day; Rodes foretold his own death on seeing [Mannheim?] Church. Postscript: York tempts Milnes to visit with a 'singing fellow' and a new billiard table.
