done under that I my own since he first went first to
Oxford, altho he has ever experienced as affectionate
a welcome & reception as any Son ever did from a Father
and conscious as I am that I have never been
deficient in any respect that could have the
least tendency to his happiness & advantage
my comfort however is that the satisfaction he
enjoys arises so much from himself that no
accident in Life is likely to deprive him of it
while he enjoys <add> has that share of Health & Peace of Mind soundness of Mind
which seems accounts seems to promise to be lasting
and that it may <add> long continue be so when I am no more is a wish with which I —
I persuade myself your Lordship will have the goodness to allow me
have the chance to be with the highest regard
to conclude the trouble I have here given you together with
the assurance that I am my good Lord with the most perfect regard
my good Lord
Your Lordships
most obedt & very
