Complains that Henry has stayed away later than he had originally planned. Discusses her busy social schedule and numerous invitations, noting "Since the arrival of Mrs. Ogden I have passed my time as agreably as possible seperated [sic] from you." Understands that his business in Boston, settling with creditors, may extend until the end of the month (it is possible Henry was settling the matter of Henry Jackson's unauthorized sale of 10,000 dollars of Knox's notes). Remarks that her sister sent her a Queensware china set.
