Autograph letter : [York], to "my dear Kitty" [Catherine Fourmantel], "Sunday" [1760].

Remarking that if this letter reaches her while she is still in bed, that she is lazy and sleepy, and apologizing for keeping her up so late the evening before. Noting that the Sabbath is a day of rest but also a day of sorrow because they will not see each other unless she meets him at Taylor's at half past twelve. Mentioning that he has ordered Matthew "to turn thief & steal you a quart of Honey" but wondering "What is Honey to the sweetness of thee, who art sweeter than all the flowers it comes from." Saying that he loves her to distraction, and will do so until Eternity.
