Title
Letter from William, Duke of Clarence to John Bourke 4th Earl of Mayo, written at Bushy House
Date Created
13 January 1822
Creator
Clarence and St Andrews, William, Duke of
Description
William answers to Lord Mayo's letter. Firstly, he assures him that he will try to help his nephew. For what, then, concerns the political news, William believes it better for Lord Mayo to stay in Ireland than in the House of Lords, especially since Lord Mayo has already a proxy in the House of Lords, and this is Shaftesbury [Cropley Ashley-Cooper, 6th Earl of Shaftesbury]. William is unsatisfied with the current state of things in Ireland.
