My Dear Sir,

I recd your letter of March 4th about a month since
this day enclosing one Bill for 150 pound & another of 4349
both of which have been accepted & for both accept my
best thanks in two days after I left Town for Wales now
when I returned last Thursday, in passing Ross Monmouth
Abergavenny & Brecon, I could not help thinking of
you & 1820. Mr. Williams of Lampeter College
is appointed to the London University's Revd. Mr.
Norris (from Norbeth) Mr. Burdens assistant. & myself
were at Landrindod Wells
Radnorshire near 3 weeks, were we met
a Rich old Banker named Jones of Landovery. I trust
we both desired advantage altho the weather has been so very
unsettled & wet, we could scarcely get out from the House
great part of the hay has been [indecipherable] to the Dunghill, the early
crops of corn completely spoild, having been long cut, &
grown, & scarcely worth caning [indecipherable] - we have now
reason to be thankful for a change in the weather
which is now fine & has been so since our return,
indeed the Picture of the Country was deplorable &
the future prospect was indeed [indecipherable] but God
is better to us than our fears in all our troubles or
what shd we do
I have this moment all of yours of Jan 7 of liound: £1828 en
closing the first of exchange above referred to of liound: £43.193/4
there is I presume a mistake in the date of this letter as you say
