Mabell Frances Elizabeth Ogilvy, Elizabeth Milbanke Lamb In Whig Society, 1775-1818

Annotation

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. I have to thank Mrs. Laing for sorting the letters, and Mr. Mainwaring, of the London Library, for helping me with the notes. My thanks are also due to Lord Ilchester for giving me copies of some of Lady Melbourne's letters to Lady Holland; and to Mr. Henry Cavendish for aiding me to disentangle a difficult question. There are but few interesting letters from Lady Cowper; but in later life her correspondence with her brother, Sir Frederick Lamb, afterwards Lord Beauvale, Who succeeded his brother, Viscount Melbourne, in the title and estates in 1848, would form a volume in itself.
