20/26 Your old friends of the 49th are well, but scattered in small detachments all over the country. They are justly great favorites at head quarters. I mentioned in a former letter my wish that, provided you could make it perfectly convenient, you would call upon Mrs.Manners, the wife of a captain of the 49th. I am satisfied that you would, after a short acquaintance, approve of her much--she is all goodness. By the last accounts they resided at Barnet. |
