Hopes to hear of Wynne's success in his journey home: is sure that Mr Meyrick would furnish him with mirth enough to pass away the time. The writer's cousin, Elize Wyn, and Mr Morris Annwyl are in good health, and with the writer's chiding the latter has quite given over tobacco taking. He has moved their lodging further into King Street - at a scrivener's house: they have a very complete chamber for 2/6 a week: in the other place where they lay before, the writer paid 4/- a week and not so complete a place. His cousin, Elize, has had his suit made very complete, and the cloak made into a coat, and new boots and a hat, and now goes very complete and carries himself very civil and decent. He tried to get a place for him, but the party came but seldom to court. Desires him to ask Mr William Lewis Annwyl to send the writer's uncle, Morris, some money with all the speed he can to buy him some clothes that he may be fit for a service. He also entreats a suit for himself: desires to borrow £200 for his preferment - for there are six commissioners chosen for the settling of the Prince's house at the beginning of May: he has had a grant of the place by means of good friends. Desires to be remembered to his Aunt who will receive by the bearer a pair of the King's gloves as a token of the'writer's service.
