Read LETTER XVII of The Letters of Lord Nelson to Lady Hamilton‚ Vol. I, free online book, by Horatio Nelson, on ReadCentral.com.

September 21st,
Quarter past Ten o’Clock.

MY DEAR EMMA,

I wish you would send the letter to Mrs. Dod’s, directly; for, otherwise, he may, inadvertently.

If done, and it comes to London, deliver some of the things. The wardrobe is her’s; and if any of her clothes are at Mr. Dod’s, they had better be separated from mine and, indeed, what things are worth removing to have them directly sent to Merton. A bed, or two, I believe, belong to my father; but, am not sure.

I send you Dr. Baird’s comfortable note, this moment received.

You will [find] Parker is treated like an infant. Poor fellow! I trust, he will get well, and take possession of his room at the farm.

Ever your affectionate,

NELSON & BRONTE.
