Letter from Uvedale Price, Foxley, to Lady Margaret Beaumont, 1801 April 23 : autograph manuscript signed.

Saying that he must "amuse myself this evening with putting on a blister, which my doctor tells me will enable me to take my journey early in next week: after so many failures I will not be sanguine; I only wish he may be right"; apologizing for not being able to confirm whether or not he can travel, but "I flatter myself however that you had rather see me late, than never"; adding that if he does not come by the end of next week, she should feel free to give his room to someone else and "to give up this year at least such a poor, sickly, uncertain animal"; describing the contents of a box and explaining that it contains several pictures that were damaged when a guest of his examined them too closely by candle-light; saying that they include a copy Lady Beaumont made of a "Vandermeer," the only painting by Sir George that Price owns and a sketch of Romulus, Remus and the wolf, "which has sometimes been called Rubens & sometimes Vandyck"; asking the Beaumonts to repair what they can of their pictures; saying that the other drawings and prints in the box are intended to be sold; sending "best remembrances" to Sir George and "those of the Ladies to your Ladyship."
