The Lady, our
Friend, for whose Health &and Wel-

less solicitous than myself (bless-

Mr. O.Oliphant &and I, had a long tête á tête
Discourse at out first Interview,
when you may be sure your Flame
was not forgot, who, I could assure
him, was well, &and still constant in
strongly adhering to her Professi-
ons, whatever unhappy Jealousies
might be entertained by some from
certain untoward Circumstances in
her present Situation: But Time &and
Patience (I doubt not) will clear
all up to your Satisfaction &and en-
tire Content.
