My Dear Mit

Will you tomorrow morning go to my Hat Maker near Lambeth House and order a new Hat for me to be without fail at the Deanery on or before Saturday Evening and also go to the Golden [Bell/Ball?] in Pall Mall and buy one yard of Broad Red Silk Ribbon of the Order of the Bath and bring it with you to Oxford that I may be ready for Drayton and Cambridge. You or one of the little girls have my red Ribbons which you had better find to get the measure exact. If they cannot find it the [drapers?] shop probably know the exact length. I think it costs 5 or 6 pence and will you remind Robert to send on letters Thursday before 8am and before 5pm will you write to tell me how the children's cough goes on and your Mamma

Yours affectionately

W. Buckland

Best not to go to Mrs Coutts if you do you will regret it to the last day of your life
