My dear H
Your note just received.— I hope assuredly to come on Friday & return on Saturday.1 My stomach is extra well, & as I have had an extra long bad batch, I have little fears of failing.— I will come in my phaeton, as otherwise I find I shd have to change conveyance 5 times!!—2 I am very glad you have been so happy: it is a noble family to be allied to.
Yours | C. D.
I will arrive about midday.— so you will have your mornings work.—
Summary
Will visit JDH on Friday. Coming by phaeton to save five changes of conveyance.
