| Summary: | Conolly writes that he has been 'harried for this fortnight past with company' and mentions the visitors he has been entertaining. He says he must go to Derry the following week about an election, but looks forward to seeing her in the spring. He has much to say to her, but it is not important enough to write a long letter about. He summarises various pieces of news and responds to a matter she asked him about. |
