[No date. ? May, 1829.]

DEAR Hood,—We will look out for you on Wednesday, be sure, tho’ we have not eyes like Emma, who, when I made her sit with her back to the window to keep her to her Latin, literally saw round backwards every one that past, and, O, [that] she were here to jump up and shriek out “There are the Hoods!” We have had two pretty letters from her, which I long to show you—together with Enfield in her May beauty. Loves to Jane.

[Here follow rough caricatures of Charles and his sister, and] “I can’t draw no better.”
