My dear Henry

I hope you are well. we came from Barming last Tuesday. I hope Aunt Mary 1 and all my Cousins 2 are well. Is it not very pleasant at Penrice 3 this fine weather.

We are to begin to learn to dance tomorrow Miss Rae 4 is coming to teach us. Papa 5 has given Horatia 6 and me two pretty toys mine is a gig and horse and Horatia’s is a Donkey.

I send you my love and a kiss and so does Horatia

I am your affectionate Sister
