In the [?] [?] of the weather there may be risk of taking cold by exposure to it. I had better continue here to arrange Papers that must require attention. [Mr Saumaurez?] wrote to Mr Arrowsmith proposing that he should take the duty at Islip and begin his [?] on the 13 Jany. I have a note today from him accepting by Invitation to the Rectory for a day or 2 on his arrival and in reply I invite him to arrive on the 12th to take his first Sunday on the 13th.
I hope the frost will have ended before the 12th. You had better not think of moving while the weather continues in its [?] severity. I had no memorandum of money advanced on [?] to poor [fellow?] nor do I remember to what time I paid him last but his Bill is in my Tin Box at Islip in a Packet labelled Paid Bills by next post Pray forward a large letter from Oxford for Mr Lawlor sealed properly with a silvered [wafer?] it is Mr Lawlor's Gas [?] which I should return to him immediately.
