Althorp Papers. Vol. cccxci. Letters from Lady Spencer to Theadora Cowper, daughter of Ashley Cowper, Clerk of the Parliament; 1754-1801, n.d. She was a first cousin of the poet William Cowper, whose love affair with her is several times referred to in the letters; see James King, William Cowper: a Biography (Duke University Press, 1986), pp. 22-26, where excerpts from the letters are printed. The early letters also give an account of Lady Spencer's courtship and marriage. They are all originals, evidently returned to the Spencers after the death of the recipient.
