    Date: 26-Oct-28

  • Transcription

    for information but I will keep the name in mind should I stumble across something.
    Yours very truly,
    Hugh C. Fairfax-Cholmeley
    P.S. I return the drawings herewith.

    {Kitson's notes}

    The drawings are 473, 474, 475 + 476 (Coll. S.D.K.) which I sent to Mr F. C. for identification. I thought (and still think) 474 is Gilling Castle 1805.
    The letters alluded to are the Cholmeley letters bound up in Reeve's common-place book in the Print Room. B.M.

    There is a pencil note by Reeves that J.S.C was introduced to the Cholmeleys by the Norton family.
