Brief Summary:
Autograph letter from Joseph Cooper Walker to Andrew Caldwell, written from St Valery’s, Bray and dating to 1797.
Detailed Summary:
Walker opens by noting that he has passed on Caldwell’s enquiry concerning Voltaire to Mr Hayley. He then goes on to discuss a passage from the ‘Life of Milton’ that puzzled him, before thanking Caldwell for his letter of introduction to Mr Malone which has since been forwarded to Mr Irwin. Walker next discusses several artists, before turning to an accident involving Lord Meath and his hopes that the ‘ball’ can be safely removed.
