I am sorry I am forced to tell you, that I can not have the Satisfaction of seeing you now at Strawberry. here is a Dr Wharton (whose Name you remember) a particular Friend of mine, that I
have not seen in several Years: his Errand hither has been chiefly to see me, & till he leaves the Place, it will be impossible for
me to stir.
I wish your Invitation had been some Weeks later, but as it is, I must be content to lose that
Pleasure, as I do most others, & only send my Love to Mr Chute, & Compliments to Mr
Bentley.
