Bowood Park
5.th Oct.r 1791
I answer'd the Inclos'd by saying
that we had some French Company,
but that I hop'd it would deter them
from the Honor they intended us on
Fryday, that we din'd at 1/2 past 5, and
that I hop'd they would stay that Night.
that their Sons knew that they were
welcome to every House of mine at all
times.
My answer to yours is that we
shall be very happy to see you & your
Brother for as many days & nights
as you can spare, at the same or
different times as may be most convenient,
and that I shall be very glad
to make the acquaintance of such a
Man as you describe M.r Moore.
M.r Garbett is not just now at Birmingham,
but he may be return's by
the time you mention — The Ladys
desire their comp.y & I beg mine to your Brother
