saying that Henry & Eliza & their family from Hampstead come to dine here at two o'clock tomorrow & if you will come & meet them, I need not say how welcome you will be. I was in the hope of those from Highbury Place but the Mumps have disappointed me. If Arthur Aikin would escort you, he would be most welcome..., 2 sides 12mo., St James's Place, Tuesday, no date
