  <dc:title>James Dun to James Beattie from Aberdeen</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Delighted with Beattie's letter and news of all those he has met. Little James [James Hay Beattie] is well and was keen to help in writing the letter. Beattie should take no notice of anonymous scribblers (Hume's acquaintances). Hume may be ignorant of what they are saying. Campbell is vexed at the treatment of Beattie in the newspapers and does not think Hume will have been involved. Alexander Dun will certainly hear of Beattie being in London. Best for Beattie not to write to Alexander until Beattie leaves</dc:description>
