NEPHEW OXINDEN,
I was very sorry that I was not at home when my neice and yourselfe were at my house yesterday, that I might then have invited you by word of mouth that now must do it by writing; the truth is had I bin the invitor this had not bin to do at this time, but except only those in our owne parish, I'le assure you the bridegroome inviteth all, yet now I will make bould to intrude on his office and earnestly entreate that my sister, my neice and yourselfe, tomorrowe, being Thursday, wilbe pleased to dine with us, where tho your cheere may be shorte, yet upon my worde you shalbe sure to find a hartly and large welcome, to whome I pray commend the best respects of
Your affectionate uncle
JAMES OXINDEN
