My d^r Henry

As I did not think I should be out of Church time enough to write I told Louisa¹ to write for me – I do not mean that our going w^d depend on Seymers,² as even if they could have come, you would probably have preferred having us separately, but some time a balk of this sort, in a party we had planned changes the whole scheme, & after all you being close to London – Let me therefore hear – It is very kind of you to want us – M^r F³ will not stir from home & Charlotte⁴ is at Carclew⁵ – Harriot & M^r M.⁶ w^d come to March out of Derbyshire & I suppose they w^d not leave here on arrival of the party, as it w^d be only Louisa & I at any rate –
