Letter from George Sandby to the Countess of Portsmouth about executing the bond to give up the Mastership in favour of Barton Wallop when required

Transcript

Madam,

The time of my going to your Ladyship's College comes very near, and that will make me so much nearer to Saville Street, that I shall certainly (God willing) have the honour of waiting upon Lord Portsmouth, and your Ladyship, in the winter. When I get to Town, I can execute the Bond to your Ladyship's satisfaction, or as much sooner as I am commanded.

I hope that the General and his Aid de Camp are both well, and send over good news for the public, and of themselves.

With much duty to Lord Portsmouth.,
I am
Madam,
Your very devoted, and very obliged humble servant,
G. Sandby
