Scope and Content:
About the inscription on the bust of his father and including instructions about sending the bust to Holyhead (from where it would be transported to Ireland and Coole). Richard is presumably the eldest son of Robert Gregory (1729?-1810) East India Company director and politician, of Coole Park. The bust is doubtless of his late father.
