Afraid a letter to Smith lost, in which he informed Smith of Rose's [?] "friendly and handsome conduct" relative to the auditorship, which is to be placed on same footing with the English auditors and will be abolished after their deaths [Johnes was audior of the land revenues in Wales], and also informed him of receiving grant of a large tract of waste land full of minerals.

His daughter [Mariamne Johnes] doing "vastly well" and sang for the first time in two years. Recent visitors at home.
