24, Great Cumberland Place. - Sends congratulations to Bobbie [on his engagement] from his 'cousins here including the "Muggins" household"; hopes they will get to know his future wife one day, and that the Gracedieu visit is only delayed until he can bring her with him [see 13/58, where Robert tells his mother he has let the Booths know about his engagement since he had arranged to visit them at Gracedieu on New Years Day]. The Fletchers, who knew Elizabeth at St Andrews, have been saying 'how much they & everyone liked her in those days'.
