The young Dutchess's hand was kissed in the morning and the Old one's in the
afternoon as She did not appear before. Proud was he now who could
get a word from either Duke or Dutchess especially the former, I however
came in for my share. In the evening during the Concert the
Dutchess and 3 of the ladies who were of our party at Pinau attacked
me again upon the subject of the widow's daughter. told me She
was come to town and that if not before I should certainly see her on
new year's day. It is fine diversion for them & for me too.
Sunday/ To day I go to Court: to as indeed I have an invitation
for every day. The post goes out this morning, so I must just
skim over your letters to do somthing in the way of answering them.
