Tuthill chides Manning for not writing and then puts forward his dream of a house in London on the Thames and a short walk from Westminster where a group of young people of superior mind could reside together and study Literature.

He asks Manning to write with his thoughts. Handwritten, 1 piece, 3 sides. Dated 6 April 1799
