  • Scope and Content
    Will be glad if she will enquire for a house, (?) at Kensington. Thinks of engaging housekeeper's niece as nurserymaid, 2 years older than one previously mentioned. Tommy improved by his Worsley cousins - the sailor is a fine lad; has something of the scurvy, but sailors don't seem to think much of it. Sorry Mrs Yorke should have fresh perplexity, as she will if Sir Charles Douglas goes out again directly, as Joseph's health does not seem fit for another voyage at present. Sister sets out tomorrow.
