    Ashamed not to have written for so long, but remembers he wrote last. Papa leaving Town soon. Assumes Robinson staying at Newby until after Xmas. Fine weather. Tried a large sort of balloon but it burnt. Leveson to remain for a few years with Lord Trentham's Tutor in Staffordshire. Mr Blanchard going up again in London before he goes from Dover immediately after he has been up in Town, he only waits to find a place in London to ascend from, not so easy. Grantham wrote that little boys improving. Boringdon's Part Book goes on well, have got to Contracted Verbs. Doing Phormio in Terence which is to be acted this year for the Westminster Play. Love to Granthams. Compliments from Kytes.
