Several of the sketches are laid down on leaves torn from an commonplace book one of these leaves having on the reverse a poem 'A certain Mr. Day married a Miss Week' and humorous anecdote relating to W. R. Smith. Five items signed by Batten with his 'LB' monogram and seven items dated. Three are addressed to Harington one 'To - Richard Harington Esq: per. Great. Western.

réf. 46404937Sarah Churchill née Jennings (1660 - 1744), épouse de John Churchill premier duc de Marlborough (1650 - 1722), fut une des personnalités les plus influentes de son temps. Elle fut longtemps la favorite de la reine Anne, puis après une période de disgrâce, retrouva un rôle politique majeur sous le roi George, l’ami et ancien compagnon d’armes de son mari. Le palais de Blenheim fut offert au duc de Marlborough en remerciement de ses victoires lors des guerres de succession d’Espagne, en particulier lors de la bataille de Blenheim en 1704. La construction du château, commencée en 1705, connut quelques retards, les fonds publics ayant été retirés durant la disgrâce des Marlborough. Les travaux engloutirent une part importante de la fortune considérable de la famille. L’essentiel des bâtiments était achevés à la mort du duc en 1722 mais les travaux se poursuivirent jusqu’en 1732. Lettre fort intéressante, écrite à un proche, suite au décès subit de son petit-fils, William Godolphin (1700 - 1731) marquis de Blandford, mort l’avant-veille d’une crise d’aploplexie probablement provoquée par un abus de boisson. Elle demande de l’aide pour organiser les funérailles, elle souhaite une inhumation intime et sans grandes pompes, dans la chapelle du palais de Blenheim alors en cours d’achèvement. Pour y parvenir elle doit faire venir d’urgence l’évêque d’Oxford afin de consacrer la chapelle. La duchesse de Marlborough est elle-même inhumée dans cette chapelle aux côtés de son mari ainsi que de nombreux membres de cette famille. Elle fait part de son souhait de faire venir M. John Evelyn, évoque la difficile situation de la veuve, la maladie du maître d’hôtel et enjoint son correspondant donner toutes les instructions nécessaires auprès du collège. Ce dernier détail pourrait permettre d’identifier son correspondant.“Blenheim, August 26th 1731Sir,You will easily believe how sorry I am for the occasion I have of troubling you upon so melancholy a subject ; as the unfortunate death of my grand-son [William Godolphin (1700 - 1731)]. Before I left Oxford, my Lord Godolphin was acquainted with it ; and he is in so much affliction, that he has left the direction of what is to be done to me, saying no more than that he thinks it is most proper and natural for the body of my Lord Blandford to be buoy'd privately in Blenheim chappel. And in order to have it so, I will write to the Bishop of Oxford to consecrate it as soon as he can. What my Lord Godolphin has said is very suitable to my own inclinations, having directed in my own will not to have that pageantry of feathers or so much as escutcheons, when I am laid in the same place.I have wit to desire that Sr John Evelyn would come to Oxford. [...] Lord Blandford's chief servant Mr Sparrow is sick and I worry much [...] but I hope from all the goodness which you have shown to me, that you will give yourself the trouble to go to the college and give all the directions that you think reasonable. Which, I am sure, will be an obligation laid upon my Lord Godolphin as well as, Sr.Whenever it is easy to you I should be glad to see you. Your most faithful and most humble servant.S. Marlborough”
