I have also written <hr /> to Mister Williams, to whom please give my thanks. Brighton is a city nearly like Brussels and as gay and the air there is the purest in all of England and as a sedentary life will not be very healthy for Migue at present as she is rather pregnant, she is going to amuse herself at Brighton. Tell me some of the news from France and of this Monster Bonaparte who has too many Friends I fear in this city. Meat here is 10 or 12 sous a pound and everything is extremely expensive. You have by this time doubtless received my Letter with a written Copy of the Certificate of our Marriage of the 8th and which was sent before we received your Letter. Tell my uncle (my Uncle [Latin]) and my sisters-in-law that I embrace them <hr /> as does my wife. As she did not have the time today to write you her long stories and the Gentleman who will put this letter in the Mail is leaving, it is necessary to wait a few days for your Answer which I hope is on its way. Tell Mr Williams that I have bought two of his Portraits, one small and the other large. Give our compliments to all of our friends who ask after us and I am in the meanwhile Your affectionate son J Booth Write our Address at Queen Street Bloomsbury and in English [Latin] Dear Uncle, my Wife will give the world a child in four or five months.

The Emotions excited in my mind by the unreserved and candid manner in which my views and wishes were met on your part will be as lasting, as my affection for you is pure and sincere, and I am confirmed in the favorable estimate I had formed of your character. Do not suspect me of flattery. I never speak its language; and to you I owe the language of sincerity. I would again visit you previous to leaving town, did I not expect that our views would be suspected, and painfull as it is to do so, must submit to return home without again seeing you. <hr /> My business after my return will necessarily call me from home for a short time; after which I cannot deny myself the happiness of coming down to visit you.

That confidence, so much prized I will never abuse. if this plan should meet your approbation, I hope you will suggest some means by which my letters would reach you. <hr /> The Pledge I have given you, shall be faithfully redeemed if life is spared, and the promise to be mine which I have received from you will I hope be held sacred by you. I will believe so. I dare not doubt it. To have the promise of your hand, and to possess your affections is to me so highly desirable, that I cannot for a moment doubt, that as I have been assured that I possess the latter, I shall also in due time possess the former.

To have the promise of your hand, and to possess your affections is to me so highly desirable, that I cannot for a moment doubt, that as I have been assured that I possess the latter, I shall also in due time possess the former. A few short months <hr /> I trust will put me in possession of both. If your feelings should prompt you to write me at this or any other time I hope you will not be fearful of confiding too much in me. My honor & character & affections shall be your shield and protection. The mail may be trusted, if you feel disposed to write. My dear Elizabeth, I pray you, not to forget me---or to forget that however we may be seperated by distance, that my heart, & my affections linger about the spot where you are to be found.
