I am afraid I have delayed too long in writing to you but I hope you will excuse me as it was not owing to any want of love but time escapes rapidly. I am happy to say that I continue to enjoy good health and have begun Mensuration lately am very busy and hope I shall go on to your satisfaction as well as that of my teachers.
Give my kind love to Brother and Sisters and all Friends.
P.S. Mr York always requests me when I write to give his and Mrs Yorks kind regards.
I remain
Dear Parents
