[To Captain Waters, Royal Marines, Woolwich]
Marine Barracks, Portsmouth
16. — May 1836. —
My dear Sir,
I write in great haste to say this moment your Son has called at my house.– He asked me to write you to say he is well.– He says he is going to enter on board a Man of War here.– Come down for Gods sake and take him home as he is in great distress.–
In haste
yours truly
