[on right] Wimbleton Aug: 25^th 1737

I am ashamed to have been so long with out

thanking you, my Dear lady Hane, for your very

kind leter from florance dated the 10^th of Sep: 1736,

but besides the intolarable load of business that

I have upon me, upon account of my family who

are with out experience & love nothing but pleasure,

I am never well, nor can I ever hope to have the

use of my limbs more, but at this time I can make

a shift to write with a very weak hand. I am

extream sorry you can give me no better an account

then you do of your helth, & that your pains are so

bad, & that you are not mended as to your speech,

but I am sure nobody can express them selves

better than you have in your leter, you mention coming

to England, but you don't name the time, but I

hope I shall live to see you again & I will live

& dye Dear lady Hanes most faithfull friend &

oblidged humble servant S. Marlborough
