My Sister Patty and myself have /been/ both closely confined with illness, we are still far from recovered. It was a great disappointment to us not to be able to go to Nailsea last Sunday; we earnestly hope we shall be able to next Sunday; but as that is very uncertain, I write a line to say you had better not trust to any thing so precarious. I propose to you to come to us on friday, and /if/ we should be sufficiently recovered we will take you back on Sunday Morning; if otherwise you will stay /with/ us till Saturday afternoon, as I should be sorry to rob the School of your superintendence on Sunday.
