MY DEAR LORD,

I am most truly obliged to you for your kind note, and for your so

generously thinking of me in the midst of your many occupations. I do

assure you that your ever ready consideration had already attached me to

you in the warmest manner, and made me very much your debtor. I thank

you unaffectedly and very earnestly, and am proud to be held in your

remembrance.

Believe me always, yours faithfully and obliged.
