Richardson's Jan. letter presents no problems other than it is incomplete. It is his reply to Lady Bradshaigh's letter of 6 Jan. and it contains numerous references to it. She answers this letter in hers of 9 Feb., but through her quotations and references, one can see that she is addressing herself to some passages in Richardson's letter that are lost. Lady Bradshaigh's 9 Feb. letter also presents no problems since it is dated, it answers Richardson's Jan. letter, and it is answered by Richardson's Feb. letter, which includes direct quotations from it and replies to it.

Mrs. Barbauld printed Lady Bradshaigh's letter of 17 March at the end of her 9 Feb. letter as if it were a continuation, but that was in error since the 9 Feb. letter is answered by Richardson's of February and the 17 March letter is answered by Richardson's of 24 March.
