Summary
Responding to Madame de Bury's request for assistance in finding suitable lodgings in London; advising her that the city is very full and accommodations difficult to find and providing her with estimated prices and suggestions; stating that they will be glad to see her and hear what she can tell them of German politics, as they live quietly and hear little; informing her that Sir Thomas [Neville] Abdy was in town and has returned to Meiningen, "which they find, as a residence, deplorably dull".
