Rome
Tuesday 1^st May 1849

C. sends Matilda ¹ a kiss for her letter w^h was very nice. We are thinking of going but have not quite settled what day nor which way – possibly the [Ilnena?] road maybe more agreeable than by Civitavecchia – If you will write a line you had better enclose to M^r Bean who will send it after us. Jane ² is still here but going I believe in a day or two. – All is quiet here – the French are gone again – it is a very stupid business –

Y^rs aff^ly
Caroline

I suppose we shall go by the next Steamer
