My Darling Henry

I have this moment received your letter which has been a week on the road, which accounts for my not being able to answer it sooner – & indeed I doubt whether you will get this if you really set out as soon as you seem to intend. I shall set about looking for a lodging for you directly I suppose you will like it to be as near this as possible. Pray go to Lansdowne House ¹ in your way this’ time & bring me an account of Louisa ² as she has been very ill – as you will so soon see the state of things here I will not now describe them –

M^r Feilding ³ wrote to you near 3 weeks ago, with a full account I believe of every thing, I wonder you had not received it.

God bless you dearest I am all impatient to see you

M^r Grossett ⁴ is another proof that there is nothing like “trying”
