Item: Letter to Elizabeth Browne Rogers Roche from Winwood Serjeant (4 January 1773)
Transcription:
it pretty well: it is more convenient
& much warmer than the other
house: We do not yet make use of the
new apartments, the plaster is not
thoroughly dry. I was greatly sur-
prised to see Mr Badger Christmes
morning: He told me that he was
under an absolute necessity of being
at Boston at that time, attending
some Law suit respecting his Wife’s
fortune; of which he assured me
he had wrote Mr Trayle word that
it was not in his power to be at Port-
smouth Christmas Day. Poor little
Poll & Duke too, have both got sad
colds, but I hope they will soon wear
off.
