About Anna, though grieving for Sarah, keeping Fowell amused, the boy's pleasing character and efficiency in packing, and the way they were all taking her advice about being idle upon the journey. Letters were found from her, Mrs Hanbury and Hannah at Genoa, but not from Edward, which caused him some anxiety. He intended to travel from Genoa by the packet, despite Powell's strong objections, and having to travel on the Sunday, against Andrew's principles. He is eager to hear news about his book, though she intended to edit the section on education, but he took comfort in the fact that Edward was left in charge of it. (Copy.)
