John Romney writes to Hayley "respecting some misapprehensions which have crept into your book by yielding too much credit to inaccurate authorities".

These mostly relate to Romney's feelings for/attachment to his wife. JR writes "That his marriage was as beneficial to his Art in the early past of his life, as his amours were injurious in the latter, is manifest from the consequences of both."

JR writes that after his father returned from York, Romney and his wife lived together in domestic happiness, without any kind of difference whatever, for nearly 5 years, excepting only that he occasionally went to reside at Lancaster for the purpose of business".

Includes: 
details of early family finances
Romney's original intention to bring his family down to London once he was settled and able to provide for them "but unfortunately long before that time came, a total change in his sentimets and feelings had taken place"
