| I congratulate you most sincerely on your promotion, and I hope you may long enjoy all your good things in health and happiness. It is not yet determined what they mean to do with our ship. I think she must go into dock; but it is not certain whether that may be here or at Portsmouth. Many thanks for your attention to Norwich [Norwich Duff 1792 - 1862, the writer's son who would fetch up as an admiral]. I hope, poor fellow, he will do well: he has not much to look forward to but what he must make for himself. |
