Text: London Sept 19th 1828 / Dear Palmer, I take this opportunity of sending / you a line to say that I do not / like the east wind enough to leave home / but I hope to see you before / the hop picking season is over. Clara Tooth / I think will do well. I fear you / will scarcely understand this letter in which I have / departed from usual style of corr - / espondence. / I remain yours very truly, / J. L / Bayswater, near London
