Mr Pitt desires to assure you the Letters were the properest that cou'd be writ upon the occasion. Ann, as we learn from the preceding letter, returned to Bath at once. 'Mr Thomas Pitt' (Lord Camelford) brings it to her, and here makes her acquaintance: 'It was there' (at Bath) 'in the year 1759 that I first connected that friendship with her which still leaves so many mixed sensations on my mind.' Ann, it may confidently be said, left mixed sensations on all minds. The next note announces the birth of the young William Pitt. _Hayes. May ye 28th. 1759._ Dear Sister,--I have the satisfaction to acquaint you, of what you was so good to wish to hear; Lady Hester was safely delivered of a Boy this morning, after a labour rather severe, but she and the Child are, thank God, as well as can be. You will give us a very real pleasure by good accounts of your own health which we hope is much better for the journey alone, and that waters will not fail to be of great assistance towards a perfect recovery. I am Dear Sister Your most affectionate Brother, W. PITT. I can't help mentioning to you the waters and Bath of Buxton: which for a languid perspiration and obstructions in the smaller vessels, have done wonders. Next comes a short letter from William, only notable from his anxiety about Squire Allworthy. _St. James's Square. July 24th, 1759._ Dear Sister,--Your letter on the subject of Mr. Allen's Health gave me, with the Pain of learning he had been ill, the Satisfaction of understanding that the attack was, in some degree over; that to Lady Hester giving an account of the terrible nature of his complaint, having follow'd Her to Wotton, where she now is. I trust that the next accounts from Prior Park will be favourable and that the best of men, who feels and relieves the most the sufferings of others, may not Himself suffer the severest of Pains. I learn with great satisfaction the considerable amendment you mention in your own Health, and the promising prospects of deriving much benefit from Tunbridge. I hope You will not let too much of this fine season for mineral waters pass, before you repair to Them, and that their effects, when you try them, will fully answer your own and your Friends expectation. I am Dear Sister Your most affectionate Brother, W. PITT. if Lord Paulett be still at Bath, I beg my compliments to his Lordship. It is perhaps well, for the preservation of continuity, to print the following letter from Lady Hester to her sister-in-law: _Tuesday. St. James's Square. Aug. 29th._
