Content Description

Warns of his inability to respond quickly on all occasions. Is glad she has found friends in Devonshire and sends his thanks to Mrs. Harward, but she should not be surprised if she feels homesick. Raises the soldiers of the Swiss army as examples of the Maladie du päis. Reflects on his own experience, content as he is in England. He has few friends or connections in Europe, his brother is dead, his sisters are dead, his nephew and nieces strangers to him. He has yet to hear from the lawyer regarding the thousand pounds, but the Dean should rest that the mney is safe in his hands.
