Draft directions for Lord Cardross, in response to 'your Lordships letter from Harrigate'. Cullen apologises for not replying sooner, and explains that he was 'called into the Highlands' and 'thought it was not proper either to carry the letter in my pocket or to leave it on my table'. The French sentence on the back is not related to the letter, and probably evidence of the draft being used as scrap paper. | 1775? | |||
