Walpole - Montagu Correspondence. Vol. i. Letters, and related papers, from Horatio Walpole to George Montagu; 1736-1770, 1784, n.d. Includes verses written by Walpole. Bound in chronological order, with some letters misplaced. For undated letters see The Yale Edition. Inserted at the front of the volume are two signed, typewritten letters of 1934 from R. Flower, Deputy Keeper of Manuscripts, British Museum to [Miss Carter?] regarding damage to the binding incurred during photography of the letters. At f. 1 is a note written by Walpole stating that Frederick Montagu can 'do what he pleases with these letters' but suggests that they be kept together as they may serve to explain passages in the letters Montagu sent to Walpole.
