Summary
Returning a letter from Lord Cork (not present) and remarking that "Our ordnance prospects do not look very bright", and referring to "a piece of ritual which I did not know till today, namely that the Bishop comes into church ready dressed, while the Canons and others dress in church", and therefore he did not follow Hervey to the palace.
