My dearest Son. I have this instant received through the Hands of lady Ailesbury, your most affectionate & ink mark I may say most joyful Letter. I am anxious to acquaint the King with its Contents, which I will do at the first opportunity, assuring you that I shall not be behind Hand to siege that moment for which I have so long anxiously prayed, & I trust will be the means of again uniting our too long separated Family in which event none has suffered more than my dearest son

your most affectionate Mother & Friend. Charlotte

Kew the 4th/ July. 1804.

I cannot say more at present being in such a hurry.
