Summary: Three notes from Mary Hamilton to Charlotte Gunning. The first note is undated and relates to Hamilton's concern over Gunning's health. The second undated note concerns a story of the King sending the Duchess of Devonshire to Mr Pitt and 'desired him to name his own terms and such was the situation of the nation that it looked up to a man of small fortune and private birth'. The third note is dated December 14 (no year given) and is concerned with 'gentleness' and the 'human heart' and relates to meeting Gunning.

Editorial declaration: First edited in the project 'Unlocking the Mary Hamilton Papers' (Hannah Barker, Sophie Coulombeau, David Denison, Tino Oudesluijs, Cassandra Ulph, Christine Wallis & Nuria Yáñez-Bouza, 2019-2023).

All quotation marks are retained in the text and are represented by appropriate Unicode characters. Words split across two lines may have a hyphen on the first, the second or both fragments (reco-|ver, imperfect|-ly, satisfacti-|-on); or a double hyphen (pur=|port, dan|=ger, qua=|=litys); or none (respect|ing). Any point in abbreviations with superscripted letter(s) is placed last, regardless of relative left-right orientation in the original. Thus, Mrs. or Mrs may occur, but M.rs or Mr.s do not.
