Whixley Hall, York. - Sends poems [no longer present] by his sister, who was ruined after entrusting £6000 to a relative. Palmerston granted her £100 from Queen’s Bounty but refused a pension; believes her literary merit equals that of other pensioners. Previous attempts to advance her claim as granddaughter of Judge Blackstone. Asks if Houghton can assist. Likes her ‘Colensiad’ despite his regard for the Bishop which his sister does not share.
