Scope and content

Wallington, Cambo, Morpeth. - Likes to hear about Julian and Bessy; sure Jan [Hubrecht]'s letter will do Bessy good; hopes and thinks that the British government will take warning from the 'naval wars of 1782 and 1804-1814' and Holland will have 'an awful example of what comes of having Germans within a "friendly" kingdom'. Feels the fall of Dinant 'deeply'; had once hoped that he and Caroline could manage another visit to Belgium and the Netherlands, and they were reading Motley's "Dutch Republic" aloud. Caroline is as well as she was when Robert and Bessy were last here.
