Letter from David Garrick to William Cavendish, 4th Duke of Devonshire

Scope and Content

Concerns: selecting some velvets for the "Lord Chamberlain's birthday suit" and preparing some patterns for the 4th Duke's approval; possible trimmings for the suit; his request to accept the 4th Duke's offer of a draught upon his banker, as stock is low and he's sold at a disadvantage and the theatre is yet to open; the report of Lady Burlington's failing health from Mrs Garrick. Written from Egham. Signed: "DGarrick".
