My Dear Mother

You must not suppose there is anything the matter with me, only some days I feel perfectly well & so éveillé ¹ that I cannot compose myself to sleep at night, then the next day I feel extremely tired in consequence, & that is all.

I well know the remedy for this, it is mountain air and exercise –

There are so many new houses at Tunbridge Wells, all round Calverley Park &c. that I am sure there must be plenty of choice, altho’ it is the season.

I had a long & interesting letter from M^lle Amélina ² the other day.

The Lansdowne’s ³ [sic] cannot choose a better tour than Ischl & Gastein.

I must ask either L^y L. or Sir Cha^{s 4} to take a little packet to Martius⁵ at Munich.

Y^r aff^te
Henry

Return Caroline’s ⁶ letter to me.
