Tuesday Morn
Dear Henry
I did not get your Note via Calne <1> till yesterday afternoon. Here is a frost again which will make it excellent walking & I hope you will walk here to day or the change will not do you all the good I intend. Wright <2> takes this, as he says he is wanted at home, but will return here to day to take care of you & Simon can bring your things If you walked as much as he does you would be always well. You will find us what George 3d <3> called a Hen party
affly yrs
