Georg von Löw writes that he has found a place for the water closet near to the Duke of York’s bedroom, and encloses a drawing, adding that he requires further information about how to cistern will be positioned. The then turns to books, noting that he can obtain another copy of the works of Voltaire for an additional sum, and that he has paid the subscription for the next batches of these works. Löw then notes that the Duke of York requires porter mugs in addition to the glassware already requested, and that he needs an additional supply of port. He asks if it would be possible to have Carrara marble tables made in England as the Duke of York requires around 18 of these. He concludes by asking that Budé send him a reliable watch, the glassware, a mahogany stand for cheese, carving knives, and forks.

Georg von Löw writes that he is sending Budé works by Voltaire, along with a lamp and a portrait of the Duke of York. He confirms the arrival of a water closet and samples of glassware, and encloses details of his expenditure of Budé and Prince William. He concludes by asking Budé to send him jackets and waistcoats.

Georg von Löw opens the letter by thanking Budé for the jackets he sent, and asking for more of these. He promises to send more works by Voltaire and encloses a statement of account. Georg von Löw then orders more sherry for the Duke of York and reports on the progress that has been made on the building and furnishing of the Duke’s house. He notes that Verona’s celinings have been a great success, and that the neighbouring house has been acquired for use as staff quarters. He ends the letter by asking Budé to supply tableware for the Duke.

Georg von Löw writes that he is sending Budé a box for Colonel Abercromby that will also contain works by Voltaire for Budé, prints ordered by the late Merrick, and a selection of music presented to the Coldstream Guards by the Duke of York and additional books also for Merrick. He asks Budé to send fruit liqeur, described as shrub, rum for the Duke of York, and cloth for breeches. He concludes with a report on the building of new staff quarters for the Duke’s staff.
