Scope and content
Handwritten, unsigned letter with drawing of Capri:
- 'April 11 / 80 My darling, The queer looking object above is the island of Capri - from Naples. It looks like a whale with a broken back - or a Kraken - or any other sea monster you please. Round the corner to the right is the Blue Grotto, + the high cliff in the middle is Tiberius's cliff, over wh. he had people thrown for his entertainment. I have first been writing to Mrs Hawarth[?], + have made her an elaborate Syrian country house on the slopes of Lebanon. The original is a coloured sketch, done at the luncheon halt, in my [?] sketch book. When you go to see her again ask her if she has any [?] + miles[?] of mine[?]' (ink)
