My dearest Poole

I had quite forgotten the Bristol fair 1 -- and this very evening, I was anticipating the delight of coming upon you tomorrow, with
Fifth Act.

I have but a very few lines to do. --

Tobin 2 is engaged to dine tomorrow at Bridgewater -- the which he deeply regrets; but he cannot disentangle himself. God love you, my best and dearest Friend!
