Description:
From Leyton, Essex, re her arrival at Revd Dr [George] Gregory's house after leaving Sir James and Lady Wright.
The Wrights were very kind to her, especially her Ladyship whose good character is very well known. It is true that Sir James has his 'peculiarities', and his invitatiton for Sally to spend a month or two with them before the end of the summer is 'a great compliment'. Lady Wright was rather worried that he would be irritated by Mrs Lee's 'unfortunate oddities and continual vapours', but in fact he treated her with great tolerance.
Gregory's house is described in great detail, and Mrs Gregory sends her regards and an invitation for Sarah and Charles to call.
She is anxious to hear about Sarah's financial problems, and is eager to help in any way that she can. Her own financial resources are slender, but she has always been lucky to have friends willing to offer hospitality.
She intends writing to Count de Lage.
Dr Gregory instructs 'his young people' in history and languages, and Sally helps by teaching French, Latin, and history. She is sometimes called upon to escort them to their master's house in Chapel Street, and she will be able to call on her mother on such occasions.
