Note 110 — FOOTNOTES: CHAPTER 10 CHAP. XI.
Reading edition
In a letter from his father, dated 22d of December, 1756, we find the following curious account of the sale of Clive's establishment:—
"The coach £40 0 0
"Pair of horses 40 0 0
"A grey riding horse 12 12 0
"One horse broke his neck; another fell backwards; and one pair kept to go in a chaise."
From this statement of property, we infer that Clive, while in England, must have lived very expensively.
