Hook has engagements that will interefere but Thompson undertakes to land him ‘safe at the Tower by seven o’clock on Saturday’. Thompson’s plan is ‘as follows the city of London Steamer leaves the Tower Stairs a little before ten oClock on Thursday with my friends & as I have official business at Woolwich I shall go on board there we stop near Southend at the boundary of the Lord Mayors jurisdiction where we dine & I shall there be joined by the Lords of the Admiralty Mr. Croker i.e. John Wilson Croker 1780-1857 etc but from there I fear they will return to town We proceed to Wrights at Rochester where we sleep Friday morning we shall visit Upnor Castle which is the boundary of my jurisdiction in the Medway & then proceed to Sheerness & view that great naval arsenal Admiral Blackwoods flag ship Vice-Admiral Sir Henry Blackwood 1770-1832 &c. at this place I give a boat to be sailed for by the Fishermen & after this engagement I return to Wrights where I entertain the Port Admiral & His Officers the Corporation of Rochester & the nobility & gentry of the neighbourhood.’ He will return to town on the Saturday by steamer. Hook now has ‘a hasty sketch’ of Thompson’s plans and he will ‘feel extremely obliged by whatever time you can give me during this cockney expedition’. ‘Mansion House [London] / 20 July 1829’. unknown

Walford now turns to the main subject of the letter: 'The Council have been making enquiries respecting the Title of the Duke of Rousillon and were advised by the French Embassy to write to the French Minister at Paris which has been done and the Council now wait an answer'. Sowerby has been 'Officially informed' that very day 'that the French Government are and have been since the receipt of our letter making all enquiries which are not yet completed.' Note: Walter Scott's Antiquary says: "In the first place I will say that although a “Duke†of Roussillon figures in Boccaccio and also in Shakespeare it is only as an imaginary character; for although there were Counts†there never were Dukes of Roussillon so far as I can discover" On letterhead of the Royal Botanic Society of London, Gardens, Regent's Park. 10 December 1872. unknown
