I have sent you a few shirts for Mrs Knight's amusement. But
d'ye mind me? I won't have my dear Mrs D. troubled with them; she has work enough besides.

I would not finish my letter till the Post came in, which to
night was not till very late - past 6 o'clock. It brought me a
letter from Mrs W. of which the what follows is all that is material

Saturday 1/2-past 10
"Dr Sir
"I thank you more for enjoining me to silence on the subject
"and contents of the Frank I read last night than from any advantage
" I can possibly receive from it.

Were I to attempt an acknowledgement it would fall so very
"short of your unexampled and unmerited kindness as would be very
"inadequate to my feelings on this occasion— in this it were
"better to be silent— Mr W. came home this day to dinner— at
"the sight of him I lost all inquietudes and am now perfectly at
"ease on the subject of my letter to you yesterday-morning. Mr
"N. has behav'd with a meanness and ignorance peculiar to him-self.
"but you shall know every particular next week.".......
"........It was impossible for me to withold any thing from Mr W.
"that had happen'd in the course of his absence; among the many
"incidents nothing gave him so much pleasure as that unexpected
"kindness which will ever be remember'd by him with the same
"warmth and lively gratitude
as by her who is eternally your obliged
S.W."

"I could wish my sister not to
"know any thing of what has happen'd—my
"head ach's wondrously. You won't wonder
"when I tell you I wept incessantly from
"Wednesday till last night."

So far Mrs W. . You see by this there was something in her weeping
that the contents of my letter put a stop to.

I hear Payne has sold all his share of the fragments.
