Providence
MMF letter #4 Charleston May 1 1791
altho' not indebted to my dear Aunt,
still the affection I feel for you induce me to embrace the favorable
oppertunity of thanking you for your last of 13th April which I have
already acknowledged receipt of I believe forwarded by Mr Jenkes.
Mr Rhodes sails tomorrow, I expect he will call this evening for a line.
therefore must be expeditious. Pray make my best compliments to Mrs
Gramon, and Mrs Nightingale ask the latter if she will be so good as to spare Jack again
that he may make us a longer visit next winter for he will hardly let us
speak to him now before he intends to depart, he favour'd me with a tune
yesterday Eve' for the first time I think he plays very well. I long to
see you. xxxxx I sadly fear I never shall. it is late and I am busy
preparing for a visit to Mooreland but it is uncertain whether I shall
go however it is best to be ready.
I must bid you adieu
& believe my yours
