Transcription
Martin informs Sloane that Mr Knight is to marry ‘ye Eldest of Mr Craggs sister’ after he ‘lived with [her] 15 years’. He claims the scandal will ruin her. Martin asks what she should do. Sloane wrote a draft of an answer on fol. 18, refusing to help her: ‘Madam. I recd yors & am in no manner of condition either to advise or relieve you being perfectly a stranger to what you write & not in a possible way of helping you, being full of affairs in my own profession that I have neither time nor abilities to be assisting to you’.
