Content Description

He has executed the commissions entrusted him. He has just returned from Flanders and was surprised to learn that Mary Boydell has changed her sentiments to Humphry. He would pass on what was told him by her brother but he and his Uncle stated it was in private confidence. He hopes to retain their acquaintance, but it is up to Humphry to take this matter forward now.

A box of "Chrystals" has been delivered to Mr J.S. Burford of the India House, which he has promised to forward.
