[MS 706]

quite well I shall be happy to hear from any of them
if they will favour me with a letter.

Before I close this letter allow me to
return you my most grateful thanks for your
offer to move me in any way, most kindly & I
value your attention to me, but I shall be able
to go on and to struggle thro' [fell?] times [indecipherable]
me, my own wants and deprivations are trifling
but for those of my children I feel most [indecipherable]
nor can I look at my Husband with [indecipherable]
patience, when I feel my situation just now, and
many uneasy moments have I for my childrens welfare.

This country has been visited with a
dry drought, so much so that wheat is very scarce
and very dear, many people have no seed to sew
for the coming year, which I fear will be very
[serious?]
Charlotte who is yet at Bounty School

but no expence to me [indecipherable] to Mary
and Jane, but I have not seen her since christmas last.

I should like to know how our Hull [indecipherable] are
as it is now some time since I heard of them - so
let me know when you last heard of them.

I regret much that Mr Foreman did not
bring my daughter Emma out, as we sent 50 L to
Mrs Wilks to get her comfortably off, she is [indecipherable]
[indecipherable], but I believe we are to have one of
Mr Wilks's sisters with him.

I sincerely hope your dear little boy
is quite well. remember me most affectionately to Mr
Hassall, also to your Father, and Mother, and Mrs
[indecipherable] accept my sincere love and believe me

yours most sincerely

Charlotte Wells
