Description: | This letter accompanied a parcel of books which Burns returned to Mrs Dunlop and about which he comments. He apologises for the brevity of the letter as he is in an unsettled period but hopes to find more time to write later. (letter no 212)
This is the 10th of the 77 surviving letters Burns wrote to Mrs Dunlop. It has been written on (docketed) by the Burns biographer Dr Currie after Burns's death which accounts for the heading Robert Burns and the code C72 on the first page.
The first page lets Burns explain about the parcel of books which the letter accompanies. Some of which are being returned and some, ones he has promised to sent to Mrs Dunlop. He makes comment on how he enjoyed them. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0 | Publisher: | Burns Monument Trust | Temporal: | 1788-01-01 - 1788-12-31 | Source: | Burns Scotland | Identifier: | Letter of Robert Burns to Mrs Dunlop of | Go to resource |
