Summary:
Thanks for Smith's letter. Their new gardener from Scotland, Mr Todd, has arrived, he was previously at the Edinburgh Botanical Garden and he knows Smith by name. Dr [James] Anderson is working on her flower garden. Received letter from her aunt, Charlotte, who complains of the heat but is happy and pleased with Mrs Kindersley [probably with Smith's cousins, the Kindersleys, in India]. Her father still in London.
