Friday July 3^d.

My dear Henry

I am thinking that you have a great chance of a stormy uncomfortable day for the Horticultural tomorrow. – It is very blowy here today, though bright & pleasant between the showers – altogether a kind of day which I know you delight in & which I too enjoy very much. Mademoiselle Amélina ¹ has not ventured out at all; for she is indisposed I am sorry to say & quite uncomfortable but she thinks that perfect quiet with the assistance of a little régime will restore her. – She would not have M^r Kenrick ² sent for, so I suppose she thinks it will pass off soon. – A small parcel from Hatchard’s is come today. – I imagine it contains the Periodicals & will wait your arrival. –We think you do not send us much news when you write from London, but we imagine Caroline ³ has not yet made her appearance or you would have found time to mention her. – M^lleAmélina likes the Pathfinder ⁴ as much as I did, & is now deeply interested in the concluding volume. –

Chicks ⁵ are all well. – & no other news from y^r aff^te
Constance. –
