Your last arrived in my absence, and followed me to Colton, about ten miles from Lichfield, the lately purchased seat of Mr and Mrs B., a young couple from the West Indies. […] Giovanni [John Saville] and his daughter [Mrs Elizabeth Smith] were with me upon this visit, the former most, the latter all of the time. Mrs B. was a scholar of Piozzi’s, and sings with great taste, and perfectly in tune, though her voice is weak. Their charming songs inspirited our evenings. |
