A Letter from my Great Aunt Princess Amelia explaining a Letter from Mr Horace Walpole.

Dear Sir

As you choose to dine with me a Tuesday, & that I have nothing but Methusalem's like my Self at my Table of that day for Commerce, & Cribidge, I send you Mr Walpole's answer in writing to my Invitation, but as you have been so polite as to make some of your Gentlemen kiss my hand before you, May I desire to do ye same by you, in Mr Walpole's having ye honour of being presented by me to you next Tuesday at four o'clock. being Dear Sir

Your most affectionate Aunt Amelia

April 2 1786

Send me an answer as soon as you can
