Mr. Hatsell to Lord Auckland.

Morden Park, Sunday, Nov. 23, 1813.

My dear Lord,—I must correct the conclusion of your last letter, "and so the world goes on," to "and so the world goes off." In the same Marlborough family I have lived to see eight[^[137]] generations:

1. Sarah Duchess of Marlborough.

2. Lady Sunderland.

3. Jack Spencer.

4. The first Lord Spencer.

5. The present Lord Spencer.

6. The Duchess of Devonshire.

7. Lady Morpeth.
