XXVI. Notices of John Lord Stanhope of Harrington, with reference to certain Letters to him, communicated to the Society by the Earl Stanhope, President, and by Richard Almack, Esq. F.S.A.; together with some Account of Sir Thomas Holcroft and Sir John Wo

On the 17th of June, 1858, several interesting original letters of and to members of the Stanhope family, in the time of Queen Elizabeth and King James I., were communicated to the Society of Antiquaries by Richard Almack, Esq. F.S.A., but, being produced late in the evening of the last meeting of the season, I think they hardly received so much attention as they deserved. Among those letters were several to John Lord Stanhope of Harrington, to whom was addressed the highly interesting letter communicated to the Society by our noble President, and read, with observations by Robert Lemon, Esq. F.S.A., on the 22nd December last.
