Transcription

Rogers was supposed to have been sent on behalf of Lord Radnor to settle Lady Essex Robartes’s debt to Sloane. There was a problem that delayed the transaction, but the debt will soon be paid. The Lord Radnor referred to in the letter is possibly Henry Robartes, 3rd Earl of Radnor (1695-1741).
