London Letter From St James's Place and Whitehall
A jumble of society news from London recounts arrivals and departures at St James's Place and elsewhere, notes on political figures like the Duke of Bedford and Wilkes, and rumors of a revived Royal title. It reports public entertainments, market talk, and local incidents, including a review at Wimbledon Common and chatter about taxes, forests, and ironies of governance.
