The sketches include scenes, portraits, objects, and incidents. Some are the source of woodcuts in John Hanning Speke’s ‘Journal of the discovery of the source of the Nile’ 1863, and some of these have notes in Speke’s hand.
Album of sketches in watercolour and in pencil and wash, made during a tour in Scotland from July to September 1823.

Inserted at the end are sketches of Edinburgh and Carlisle, a drawing, 1820, of Killarney and other unrelated material.
