Sent from Stocken. Lisbon earthquake. Further reports on dress. Ticket for the opera. Riots at the playhouse. Madame Sevigne’s Letters, and Voltaire’s history of the last war.

Sent from Stocken. Books, including ‘Joe’s pamphlet’. Does not like Voltaire’s history as well as his Siecle de Louis 14. Madame de Sevigne: read the other 6 volumes… admire them more then ever; there is a goodness of heart… that is delightful.
