My Dearest Charlotte, You are so kind, so good to me
that perhaps you would be uneasy if you heard by any
other means than my own writing of my not being quite well.
I therefore will own to you that since last Wednesday I have
been very much otherwise, but am now mending very fast.
I was taken with a violent head ach shivering &c a feaver
ensued, which called for Dr Manning’s assistance & he has
accordingly put it to order. I am yet weak & not totally
free of evenings from a return of the complaint, but so much
better as to be able to enjoy my best pleasure which is writing
to my sweet dear girl. I hope you are quite well. I thought
of you very often when I lay awake in the night. I am
surprised I have not heard from Lady Belmore if you
have not. Priez Mde La Mere Generale de vous acheter une robe
de Monpelise. I insist upon your having one & everything you
can wish or desire. Mr Hay the clergyman (Mrs Bagot’s brother
is married to a Miss Bragg of Gloucestershire niece to Lord Battunot
they reside at his living near Northwalthsham in Norfolk.
I only heard by your letter of your brother being at Paris.
Let them know that I am well. Adieu my love. Write to me soon.
Y^r Papa & every one here send their love to you. Neddy will
write next post. adieu ma chere Petite.
