Perthshire, You in Suſsex. We might meet inLondon, were my Father disposed to carry methere, and
were your Mother to be there at thesame
time. We might meet at Bath, at Tunbridge,or any whereelse indeed, could we but be at thesame place
together. WeWI1 have onlyto hope thatsuch a period may arrive. My Father does notreturn to us till Autumn; my Brother will
leaveScotland in a few Days; he is
impatient to travel.Mistaken Youth! He
vainly flatters himself thatchange of Air
will heal the Wounds of a brokenHeart! You will join with me I am certain
mydear Charlotte, in prayers for the recovery of
theunhappy Lesley's peace of Mind, which
must everbe eſsential to that of your sincere
freind M. Lesley.e
