I have heard my Father often speak of you, Sir, with much respect, and I shall always honour my Father's Friends. I am, &c.
S. Pegge.
Whittington, May 23, 1796.
Sir,
I thank you for the favour of your Letter, which was anticipated by a line from Mr. Nichols, advising me that "The Northumberland Household Book" was safe in his hands. The honourable mention I hear of my late Father, almost every day, is very gratifying to me, though I know it is not undeserved on his part. As to Mr. Brander's Print of my father, I have a very few in London; and one of the best of them shall be at your service. I cannot think the Print in the least like my Father; but I have a Painting[62] which is a very strong resemblance.
Your very obedient humble servant,
S. Pegge.
To Mr. Nichols.
