- Autograph Letter signed. Writes from Aranjuez. Describes their conduct at Cadiz. Sarah was ill and had great difficulty in paying the necessary visits.

She is going to walk with Madame Gautier, the wife of a Brigadier General, in the street of the Queen where the Princess of Asturias rides and walks every afternoon, and all persons of distinction meet to pay their respects to her. Asks Kitty to remember her to all of her friends.
