My Dear Henry

I am glad you think of coming again to see us, & trust you will not go the other way till He ¹ is decidedly better, for tho’ D^r Seymer has taken his leave today yet I cannot be other wise than uneasy while the œdematous swelling continues in the leg, from the hip to the foot. All the 4 Doctors agree that no man ever passed through a more perilous four weeks than he has done.The very Evening you went he asked to see you, but was very contented to hear you were gone into the Country because London & its stuffy atmosphere disagreed with you. In general he seldom expresses a wish to see anybody – C & H. ² are writing to you

af^ly y^rs

Love to Constance ³

L^d V’s ⁴ house in Dover S^t will not be vacant till the 20^th so it is just possible we may take Bimbo ⁵ in here for a few days when he comes. Therefore let us know before you arrive because of your room.
