My dearest Son. After Our parting I considered the pleasure of Your long wished for present, but upon mature consideration I find it more [[underline]] prudent [[/underline]] for myself to [[underline]] decline [[/underline]] accepting it, as the expence attending the dear little intelligent creatures will not suit my Finances. I flatter myself I am in time to prevent Your putting yourself to any further inconvenience about them. As I shoud grieve that Your pretty attention to me should be attended with any trouble for You. I desire You will be persuaded that this mark of Your Affection is very Sensibly felt by your very Affectionate Mother & Friend. Charlotte Windsor Lodge July the 9th 1784.
