D^r. Sister New Hall Febru^ry: 13 (1772)

I am sorry to hear that you have got the toothach, I had an opportuni^ty

of inquiring after you on Sunday last of your Uncle who was at our Chapel;

I am once more happily setled at New Hall and had the pleasure of finding

M^rs {?Fowell}, and both of us was very glad to meet each other at this Place

Again, I did not leave Sheffield till Sunday Morning the Waters being out on

Saturday so as to prevent my return; my coussin tells you will come to our Assem^bly

I have some thoughts of being there, M^rs Tiell says that she will send me her sack,

for I have not any ^ ^thing wearable in the mourning way, I hope you have received the Trunk, for which I thank you, the four Guineas that I borrowed I sent

by M^r Hinds, and am greatly obliged to you for helping me at that Time. –

I have had a Letter from my Mother who is very well, my Father is but indiffere^nt

M^rs Wheat was brought to Bed on Saturday Morning, and the Child died on

Sunday, but M^rs Doctor Young was deliverd of a dead Child. –

M^r Batty is taken I’ll again, and not likely to get over it, I am glad to hear

my Aunt is got pritty well to whom I beg my Love, as also to the rest of the

Family. – are you reconciled to the haunted Room, I confess I think our

fears were groundless, tho I’m sure I was frightned at the Time, and

very glad that you woud be ^with us, I hope you will write soon

to your Affectionate Sister E H

I beg my Love to my Brother -
