My dear Henry

I hear from Constance <1> that you have brought with you to London a fresh apartment of Photogenic Drawings – This being the case & as I have never had one of my own I want much to beg you to bestow one on me which I will preciously keep & value. –

We want to know when you go back to Lacock? Can you take a box containing a Gown to Lacock for Constance? it will be very convenient if you can – . –

I am further desired by C. to let you know what she owes Laura and us so in pursuance of her commands I duly inform you that her debt to [illegible deletion] Laura is exactly £1. 0. 0

To us for Decanter
Stewpans &c

– about 2.18. or £3 as near as we can possibly calculate.

Hoping to catch at least a glimpse of you at Lansdowne House <2> [illegible] night I am

Yr Affte Cousin
