Chapter CXXII: Letter CXX: To Mrs. M

Christmas-day, 1779.

MAY this blest season bring every pleasure with it to my kind and worthy Mrs. M----! and may the coming year bless the good and happy man of her heart with the possession of her person! and may every future one, for a long period of time, bring an increase to her joys and comforts!--So pray the Sancho’s--and all join in thanks to Mrs. M---- for her friendly present.--Will Mrs. M---- be so kind to say all that’s civil and thankful to Mrs. W----e, for her kindness in sending me a bottle of snuff?--and also make my respectful compliments to Mr. L----? God keep you all!

Yours I remain, much
obliged and thankful,

IGN. SANCHO.
