Catherine Buxton to Charles Buxton, about the arrival of Hannah, Chenda, Sarah, and Fowell in London on the Saturday after a bad night crossing of the Channel and Buxton's good health and spirits, n.d.
She remarks on the fact that foreign climates suited Hannah better than the English one and that she had been quite unwell on her return. Her own mother was suffering from influenza and they had received bad news of Sarah Sheppard, who had some form of lung disease. She reports the arrival of the family from Halesworth on the Saturday and how their children all got on so well together. They had received his letter of 27 May. Finally, she writes that Buxton had too much to do for his own good but that his affairs were very satisfactory.
