DEAR MRS. CHARLESWORTH,

I received your last packet just as I was setting off for Suffolk. I

sent part of it to Carlyle. I enclose you what answer he makes me this

morning. If Miss Charlesworth will take the pains to read his dispatch

of Gainsboro' Fight, and can possibly rake out some information on the

doubtful points, we shall help to lay that unquiet spirit of history

which now disturbs Chelsea and its vicinity. Please to keep the paper

safe: for it must have been a nuisance to write it.

I lament your renewed misfortune: but I cannot wonder at it. These

things are not got rid of in a year. Isabella is in England with her

husband, at Hastings.

Believe me yours ever thankfully,
