Nieces, Miss Gardeners are Milliners m
Brock Street, Bath, and merit the notice
of all those who wish to rew’ard virtue,
and patronize industry. This is a hasty
sketch of my departed friend and his fa-
mily, written in one day and finished in
one respeft only, like his best pidures,
i. e. at one fitting, for I think the finest
head he ever painted, was that of his
nephew, Mr. Dupont, and that was never
touched but once, and that once the work
of one hour, I admired it exceedingly,
he gave it to me, and it may now be seen
in Lady Bateman’s dressing room, at my
Lord Bateman’s house the corner of Park
Lane. Mr. Gainsborough, soon after his
marriage, had two daughters only, who
are both living, the youngest is married
