Mary Delany in London - March, 1735

from Autobiography and Correspondence of Mary Granville, Mrs Delany: with interesting Reminiscences of King George the Third and Queen Charlotte, page 530:

My sister is very much mended by Dr. Hollins's prescriptions; she looks abundantly better, and is as lively as she used to be. We were together at Mr. Handel's oratorio Esther, and the day after at Lady Strafford's, all which has agreed perfectly well with her.
