We shall be glad to see you and Mrs. H and I will pay her a compliment that I do not shew to many ladies, at my own house, that is by taking a cup of tea with her, because her worth and firmness demand this respect from all those who have had an opportunity of appreciating in its proper character her high merit.
I am afraid I shall make you vain in possessing such a woman, but then I know you deserve her and in that way I adjust the account.
You had not left my house last night many minutes before I arrived. I regret that you had the trouble of calling to prevent this, was the reason that I wrote to you last night. Mrs G will accompany you to Mr Grosvenor's and if you wish it I will do so also.2
