My dearest Son. I return you many thanks for the Intelligence Concerning Augustus, I shall not fail to acquaint the Kg of it & am sure He will be as glad as myself to know a reason for this Delay. I cannot however blame Him for His Curiosity as such opportunities do not offer themselves frequently. I hope You are pleased with the Addrefs of the Soulonese to Lrd Houd, it makes one feel happy to belong to the English Nation, who says little & does much, for it is the first that has truely Espoused the Cause of an Unfortunate [[unclear]] Kg. This Action is the Brightest Jewel in the Crown of England, that You &Yr Posterity may ever see it shine with such Lustre is the Sincerest wish of Yr very affectionate Mother & Friend Charlotte. the 15th Septbr 1793
