Bentinck Street, April the 6th, 1778.
Dear Madam,
As we can talk more in an hour than we can write in a day, I shall only say that I propose myself the pleasure (and a great pleasure it will really be) of waiting on you on Thursday evening the 16th inst. If anything should delay my journey two or three days later you shall certainly have timely notice.
I am, Dear Madam,
Most truly yours,
E. Gibbon.
