    Sir—

    I hope, notwithstanding the Severity of the
    weather,1 that You are gott well to Paris, and
    have exchanged the Treaty for prolonging the
    Cessation; The Queen would have You Send an
    authentick Copy of it to My Lord Lexington,
    which I have promised him by my Letters
    of this Post.

    I have nothing more to add, but that My Lord
    Chamberlain intends to Sett out on Thursday
    next, when He arrives, You will have more
    leisure, and be able to employ it more agreably.

    I am
    S.r
    Your most humble
    Servant

    Dartmouth.
