Summary
Expressing great pleasure at Ward's intention to visit, and giving him directions to the cottage from Ramsgate. Noting that Collins would meet Ward at Ramsgate, but the lanced boil (see MA 3151.14) prevents him from the long walk. Asking Ward to bring with him the remainder of his account (£32.14.6), and attaching a statement. Sending Caroline's kind regards.
