Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Lawrence
The earliest portraits of which there is a distinct record are those of Mr. And Mrs. (afterwards Lord and Lady) Kenyon, which were drawn in 1775, the lady in profile, because, the child said, her face was not straight. About this time Thomas was sent to his only school, at The Fort, near Bristol, which was kept by a Mr. Jones. With the exception ofa few lessons in French and Latin from a dissenting minister in Devizes, this was the only regular education he received; but it would appear from an anecdote related of him in mature life that he had some acquaintance with Greek.
