Summary
Concerning Ducarel's application for the position of sub-Librarian at the British Museum; saying "I am sorry I did not receive your Hint before, about the sub-Librarian's Place for the Museum, whose appointment tho' not yet settled, is like to be what you mention. I am but one of three who dispose of that place, & the others of inferior value I have lately promised to serve are particular men & therefore am sorry I did not hear of you before, for it would be great pleasure to me to oblige you in anything. The L'd Chancellor & Speaker are the other two Trustees."
