A letter from Cardinal Charles Erskine to Ms Pergoli. The item has a printed extract from an auction catalogue describing the content of the letter. The letter is dated 23 January 1795 at London. Erskine states that when he entertained his correspondent at Chigiano, they never thought that one day 2,000 miles would separate them.

He also affirms that he has taken care of the interests of the Holy Father.
