Text

I intended this day to visit Hannah & thyself, but my Carriage being to mend, I fear it will not be in my power to see you before <yo>ur excurtion to Virga. for a few days--in which case, I beg that <Han>nah will accept my sincear wishes for her happiness in the change of situation she is about to make.

I wish to take with me a little of thy good Magnesia Panegoric & tincture of rubarb.
