Much as I am charmed with the dear dandelion it shall not prevent me from paying due respect to yr Fathers new Periwig – Tell my good old Friend I esteem the Curls of it above the Tresses of Berenice because I consider them as a joyous Constellation which announces to me an approaching delightful event viz: yr Arrival at Eartham which I flatter myself I shall have the pleasure of shewing you Both in the Course of July –
We return home on Saturday next & I do not think of moving again from that favourite Retirement for many many Months.
