[Tonsberg] July 18 [1795].

I am here in Tonsberg, separated from my child—and here I must remain a month at least, or I might as well never have come.

********

I have begun —— which will, I hope, discharge all my obligations of a pecuniary kind.—I am lowered in my own eyes, on account of my not having done it sooner.

I shall make no further comments on your silence. God bless you!

Mary.
