Dear Henry

I enclose ¹ you a prospectus which please to return with your orders if any.

What a snow – we had the thermometer at 22° – on Saturday night – 20° last night post stopped – coaches dug out – letters coming at near midnight & such unusual courses. And according to the papers, we have had the least of it in these parts – I was in luck to get away from Bowood ² in time – where I left C. ³ & Val. ⁴ doubting what to do. They are all at Lacock I hope by this –
