Addressed, to Mrs Waters, King Street, Woolwich, Kent

I was out, My Dearest Love, when your letter arrived, therefore being tyed for time I have written in confusion knowing you are anxious for an early answer, do not pay the post to me, that expense I will pay, glad enough when I can get a letter from you, the draft Joseph will give Mr Young insert his christen name if you know it enclose Mr Coxe’s note at once to Mr Cox by post, it will not be charged double and he will pay it, you will take to yourself twenty pounds from Mr. Sillifant therefore you will not need to draw these 2 months Write as often as agreeable but do not expect an answer by same post, it goes out so early I may miss it by being out at the time

Yours Affectionately
           Thos. Waters
