Summary
Reporting that she is still suffering but anxious to leave Bath; adding that Charlotte has been a wonderful companion and "...poor little Mary is looking yellow & very Billious but I am told it is always the consequence attending the recovery of the Fever she has had, she eats & sleeps well & is in good Spirits & I therefore trust in a short time she will be quite well again;" saying she had a letter from Louisa telling her how wonderfully she was welcomed [by Minney] and how happy she [Mrs. Fitzherbert] is to see the "goodness of yr heart & feelings not to be certain but that you would exert yourself for them indeed they seem most perfectly grateful for it - I have nothing to tell you Dearest for we are as dull & stupid as possible there is scarcely a creature here I know except some old Fograms who's company I had rather be without & the weather has been so detestable that there has been no possibility of going out - we are planning a jaunt to Bristol but god knows if we shall be able to accomplish it I shall now release you my dear Minny from this stupid scrawl."
