TitleLetters to William Henry Lyttelton
DescriptionLetters to William Henry Lyttelton from various correspondents.

Several of the correspondents are people William was previously acquainted with in his capacity as Governor of South Carolina and of Jamaica and are asking for his support in obtaining a position.

Some of the letters in the bundle are addressed to Lord Westcote, but others are merely to 'Sir 'or 'My Lord' so it has been assumed that those letters are also to William. Some of the early letters placed in the bundle are in French. These also have no named addressee so it is assumed that whoever included them in the bundle had some reason for adjudging them to be for William.
