FROM LADY CATHERINE JONES^[1].

SIR,

CHELSEA, JUNE 11, 1729.

I RECEIVED the favour of your letter the 22d of May, and own my obligation to Mr. dean for the information of the decay of my grandfather's monument^[2] in the cathedral church of St. Patrick. Mr. French, the present receiver of my father's estate, will be, some time next month, in that kingdom, whom I have ordered to wait upon you for your direction in that affair; in which, when he has informed me of the expense, I shall immediately give directions to have it done, agreeably to the desire of the dean and chapter, as well as the duty due to the memory of my grandfather, without adding farther trouble to Mr. dean, from his most humble and obedient servant,

CATHERINE JONES.

↑ Daughter of Richard, earl of Ranelagh.
↑ A monument erected to the memory of archbishop Jones, and his son, lord viscount Ranelagh. It was then in a ruinous condition; but repaired by the order of this lady. See another letter June 15, 1732.
