Scope and content
Chelsea. - FitzGerald has 'not drawn Cromwell's house at all! It seems to be Stewart's house at Stuntney, Cromwell's uncle's, but not Cromwell's own'. Hopes that FitzGerald, or his friend Peacock, will 'take a real portrait' of Cromwell's house in Ely city centre 'while it yet stands'.
