Updates Lucy on the progress of her son, Henry. Writes, "Master Henry's advances in the Latin are such as I hope will please you sufficiently... His mind appears strong, and his judgment solid- his ideas are lively and his memory sufficiently retentive." Sends regards to the Knox family, and notes that the clothes she sent Henry have been safely delivered.
