Add to basketOn 7.5 x 14 cm piece of laid paper, laid down on part of a leaf from an album. In fair condition, on aged and spotted paper. The letter reads: 'G Dr. respects to Miss Lusada - begs she will please to accept the enclosed - 3 more Letters will follow - wch. shall be sent. to Miss Lusada - Dr. is gone to dine with Mr. Morgan, who d…esires his Compts. and informs Miss L. that he will send to her soon the little Mathematician'. The recipient was in fact Abigail Lousada, the bluestocking daughter of Isaac Barrow Lousada [sic] of Devonshire Square. See her obituary in the Gentleman's Magazine, April 1833, where her 'superior talents' are described. She translated the works of the Greek mathematician Diophantus into English, and in 1817 Benjamin Gompertz dedicated his 'Hints on Porisms' to her, declaring: 'the mathematical studies are among the number of your scientific researches'.
