I cannot let Coll Cambray go without a line to you tho I sit up to write in bed. I have had a fit of the Bilious Cholic that lasted twenty four hours. It went off yesterday but has left me very weak and with a bad head ake. I hope a good nights sleep will quite restore me, and then I shall be able to write you a long letter by Mr. Oster who goes in a day or two. Mr. Bache went to Mr. Kidds the day before yesterday just before I was taken and would have been home to night but for the rain. I never missed him more as he is realy the best nurse in the World. Little Deby is in the heights of the Measles. She has it heavily, but I am in great hopes will do well. The rest have all had it and are well and hearty. We are sorry to part with Coll Cambray who is universaly liked here, both as a Soldier and a Gentleman. He flatters us that he shall return and live in America. I was sorry I could not see him this evening, having not learn’d as much of the French fashion as to see a Gentleman when I was in bed. I feel myself better than when first I took my pen in hand. I was thinking at first to make Will to write for me. Excuse this paper it was all that I had this evening. I am as ever your Dutiful Daughter
