PARRY
(Sir William E., 1790-1855, Admiral, Arctic Explorer)
Fine Long Autograph Letter Signed to “My very dear Friend”
saying that “it must always be a pleasure to me to renew my communication with you, even in the imperfect and unsatisfactory shape of letter writing; and it can never be anything but a gratification to me to attend to your wishes. By my not immediately answering your letter, you may have begun to think otherwise, but the fact is, that I lost not a day in forwarding to my sister Mrs Martineau the expression of your wishes, and, by the enclosed note, you will perceive that she has not been backward in answering it. I hope you will see her as well as us, when you come to Petersfield for it will be a matter of no great difficulty for you to get here to see us in our nice new nest. We are truly pleased to hear that both you and your husband are in better health than formerly. Pray, do not fail to let us know when you come, that we may fix some day & plan for your coming to Haslar. We should rejoice to see you... Catharine desires to unite with me in much true love...”, 3 sides 8vo., Haslar Hospital, 20th August no year but after
