Barking full as agreable in that respect, & that when you & I my Love, are settled there —
with those valuable Friends about us, (the pleasure of whose Company I shall depend upon
& hope you will engage for the remaining Part of the Summer) I flatter myself you will
not have occasion to think it will have cost you much happiness of your own to establish
and secure mine - as great a Gainer as I shall be in your Love & Esteem, I am not
so selfish but 'twou'd give me a real Concern to gain by your Loss in any particular
whatsoever —

By the same Post which brought me your Letter I likewise received a Line from
Mr. Mulford; your's was the first I open'd by which as you may imagin, I was wonderfully
pleas'd with the Expectation of seeing you on Wednesday; but His gave some —
allay to that satisfaction by giving me to understand it cou'd'n't be till Fryday
when you may be asur'd my Impatience will not suffer me to lose, by a moments
delay, the first opportunity of making myself happy in the Sight of my dearest Charmer.

I forgot when I wrote before to desire you to pay M.r Harris the Postage of the Letter he
was so obliging to receive for me at Basingstoke & send me up to Town - I think 'twou'd
be proper to do it, but leave it to your better Judgment - my respects to yr Family.
Pray does M.r Woodward make any use of his Horse I rode upon, if he does not &
intends to leave him behind in ye Country when he comes up & your Bro.r shod. have
no other occasion for it, I cou'd wish he wod ride it up, & let it run for Six Weeks or
Two Months in my Stable or Field at Barking, it may be of use for some of us to
come backwards or forwards to Town - if you approve of it - mention it - but not
otherwise - my view being nothing more than it might be of some conveniency,
and be a means, yr. own Horses may be sometimes more at Liberty to attend
your pleasures, in carrying yourself sister & my Mother abroad - but beg you'll use
your own discretion - for you must be sensible I know nothing of the matter —
your cousin Mulford is just drop't in upon me, and stays to take my Letter & a
Frank with him to include one or two of his own which will save you some
