Dear Sir,

I have spoken to young John Humphries ² – to day – on the subject of your Letter rec^d this morning – & he assures me, that he has no fear of being able to take charge of the Garden, for the time you mention – Altho’ you did not desire me to write, I thought it possible you might expect to hear before you return, as I did not learn at the Abbey when you meant to be at home –

I am Dear Sir
Y^r Obliged Ser^t
