Sunday Novr 6th

My dear Henry

Matilda 1 hears me say that I must write to Papa & she therefore sends you a love & a kiss – and Rosamond 2 sends you a kiss & no love – Pray do come as you propose – and I recommend you to bring your camera &c – for there is a very good view of the village of Weston from the back windows 3 – the church & the scattered houses on the hill side are very distinctly seen – and might do for practise though they are too far to be taken as single objects – You know the place altogether is not pretty – the houses extended along the beach are small & mean looking & I therefore do not mean that the view from the back windows is beautiful but they command a distinct view of the place such as it is – If you think of taking any views out of doors I think you may find several very quiet spots where you may fix your Instrument – and our promontory is an excellent & very picturesque object – The end next house to us being empty you can be accommodated with ample space for your operations. – The weather is very enjoyable now – Banwell Church & some others are beautiful objects – An open battlement which adorns these churches looks beautiful against the clear blue sky –

The nursery proceeds comfortably with the new woman 4 –

Your affectionate

Constance

The Globes 5 come regularly now. – Wright 6 forgot them once when he was busied in Caroline’s 7 affairs – but not since – I hope you got a letter from me yesterday 8 – in which I proposed staying here another fortnight, at least.
