Summary:
Hopes Frederick [Smith's brother] will be careful whilst staying in their house. His accommodation arrangements for his time in Birmingham. Arrangements for their going to Holkham [Hall, Norfolk, home of Thomas William Coke]. Will not think ill of Lord A. His lectures "very fully & genteelly attended" and he receives "much attention & commendation", there are Cambridge men who also approve highly. His health good except for a feverish catarrh, and escaped all visits under pretence of health. His visit to Edgbaston Hall, now occupied by Dr Edward Johnstone. Sorry to hear of riots near Pleasance.
