It is hard for her to express her feelings about his generous acknowledgement of their hospitality; she and Elizabeth appreciate all his kindness and consideration; told Eliz[abeth] of his gift, but she did not feel at liberty to speak of it; he did not need to give them anything, as his kind actions already showed in his gratitiude; they were happy to have him stay with them; he had asked her not to name what he did a few months ago, but she told her sister and Eliz[abeth], but not Laura; thinks he will understand why she didn't tell her; plans to give her £10 from his gift and divide the other 40 between her and Elizabeth to use for the trips to London; has not used the £50 he gave them in Jan[uar[y; plans to use it later, when she needs it; will use the new money for pleasant purposes, which the trip to London will be, even though she will be sadded by the memory of her last trip there; will be unhappy if the trip prevents her from being at home when he leaves; wrote him a letter so she could express her feelings in private. 4pp. ALS [Address and date are in the hand of Rutson Maury]
