My Dear friend

When you see Tooi he no well: he much better now thank God for make him better. We all pray Jesus Christ every night to make him better. I pray for Tooi and all Missionary friends ever night. Saturday night the Admiral bring the carriage, I go by myself to his house: plenty gentleman, plenty lady, plenty cocked hat. I drank two cups coffee. Plenty music plenty dance all same as a public house. I came home in the carriage. Sunday morning me, Mr Kemp, Mr Hall, and Mr Butler went to Church a very old man preached very big way, too much powder: afternoon me and Mr Butler go see the school, and Mr White took us to the Dockyard to see English curiosity. Go into the Commissioners house, he shew me every room in the house, and his garden, and his daughters and son. Then go see the Prince Regent 120 Guns: never see so large Man of war: plenty people at work: man as strong as a horse, Driving bolts: go to the rope walk,
see rope as big as my body. See the saw mill go by steam. I see the iron

Captain Warren very kind gentleman: he say he like to go to New Zealand: very kind lady his daughters: plenty laugh

I very sorry Mrs Bickersteth no well, I pray Jesus Christ to make her better. Give my love to Mrs Bickersteth Mr and Mrs Pratt, and family, Mr and Mrs Cooper, and all friends
God bless you
