that Town. But I must reserve a description of these trips until another

'I have enjoy'd all this summer most excellent health, and the climate

'Tell Lady C. I have collected for her a quantity of antient Greek,
Roman and Egyptian pottery, the greater part of which is most
exceedingly valuable, and some that I dug myself at Samos.

'I have also collected a quantity of very fine Coins (Greek) which

so! This letter I know he will see, so if he will, take it as written as

'Your most afftn. Son

'C. YORKE.
