My sweetest Radical

How goes on the farmers, have you killed Lamb yet, I hope you have. Here’s this kingite studying Taurus very hard; I can assure you he is become quite a dandy, you won’t know him when you come home. Your figs, and prunes are not half gone yet I had some today. Do you know my sweetest Storm, that Daily was so kind as to ask us to tea when we are to have the pleasure of your company, that we may talk politics, what fun. Little Henny often talks of porm dear Papa and poor Bo I should have written you before my sweetest, but I had some nasty Leeches on, and they did bite in such a way; so I thought you would excuse me I shall expect a letter from you very soon and I hope you will tell me about Fance debt, and Hobhouse. I hope you won’t make yourself sick with Grandmama’s and Tippy’s nice cakes. Love and kisses unnumberless. So good bye ever sweetest Farmer and never forget your ever affecte Ta

Pray excuse bad writting as in a hurry

Remember me kindly to Mr MacSwiney
