EDGEWORTHSTOWN, _March 25, 1805._

To-morrow we all, viz. Mr. Edgeworth, two Miss Sneyds, and Miss Harriet

Beaufort, and Miss Fanny Brown, and Miss Maria, and Miss Charlotte, and

Miss Honora, and Mr. William Edgeworth, go in one coach and one chaise

to Castle Forbes, to see a play acted by the Ladies Elizabeth and

Adelaide Forbes, Miss Parkins, Lord Rancliffe, Lord Forbes, and I don't

know how many grandees with tufts on their heads, for every grandee man

must now you know have a tuft or ridge of hair upon the middle of his

pate. Have you read Kotzebue's _Paris_? Some parts entertaining, mostly

stuff. We have heard from Lovell, still a prisoner at Verdun, but in

hopes of peace, poor fellow.

_To_ C. SNEYD EDGEWORTH, AT TRINITY COLLEGE, DUBLIN.
