Thanks for Smith's letter, glad to find that the plants she sent to [James] Sowerby are so rare. Her sea-bathing here has recovered her "amazingly". She has a lucky hand for catching insects and has been successful in Aberystwyth. Hopes to see Smith and Mrs [Pleasance] Smith in August. Weather has been cold and uncomfortable. In response to Smith's question states that since 30 June she is 12 years old.
