To his Stepmother.
Pall Mall, April 8th, 1772.
Dear Madam,
According to the indulgent conditions you have been so good as to allow me, I only write to say that I am perfectly well, and that I hope to be at Beriton towards the end of next week. The day is still in suspense from some arrangements which do not entirely depend on myself, and which have occasioned my missing a post or two. I believe that I shall be able to fix it by Saturday or Tuesday at furthest.
I am, dear Madam,
Ever yours,
E. G.
