I grow impatient to hear from you and
want much to know how Kitty does indeed
I thought she had had the Measles and am
sorry to find that I am mistaken you
cannot doubt the sencerity of my good
wishes towards her therefor must beg of
you to be very particular about her.
In the last News Paper there is an account
of some of the Artillery being immediately
to be drafted out for America, I think
‘tis likely my Brother may be one that
will go if so, he cannot [deleted] I think
pay his intended Visit. I am in
doubt if you will excuse the seeming
impertinence of my last letter but
the advise was such as I should have
put in practice had your case been
mine I am vastly pleased with a
Letter I received on Tuesday Evening
from Miss Wright She writes a very
genteel hand and her stile I think very
easy and pleasing I’ll assure you her Letter
very much humbled me and I repented of having
wrote a note to her, I am with increasing friendship
every day more and more yours

Elizabeth Hare to Ann Hare, undated

She is impatient to hear from Ann, and to know how Kitty is, she thought Kitty had the measles but she may be mistaken, discussing the latest news on America and suggesting that Thomas Hare might be drafted and therefore unable to visit, apologising for her advice in her last letter, commenting on Miss Wright's genteel hand.
