Jennifer Roberts wrote to me as follows:
  I have a series of letters from Lauderdale to Lord Grey which 
Bernard [Corry] and I worked on in the 60's; they are white on black 
photos which were amongst the Grey papers in Durham. A typed version 
was made and corrected.  They are daily chit chat with comments about 
the value of gold, government policies etc.  I am loath to throw them 
away and wondered if you knew of anyone working on Lauderdale who 
might be interested.

When asked if a publisher might be interested in them as they are, 
she replied:
  I don't think they are stand-alone material - need contextualising 
etc. We were looking for Say's Law or something about the cycle etc. 
I found letters from Say to Lauderdale in Scotland - one interesting 
one had a cigarette burn on the crucial sentence!

I am asking for this to be posted for her, with her consent. Replies
