Description
Thanks for her note and kind interest; she does not think she can yet return to the church [i.e Anglican], as she is still struggling with the thoughts of apostacy and excommunication; she hopes Eleanor's "present indisposition" of anxiety is only temporrary. Elizabeth adds after her signature "Named in Religion, M. Magdalen Margaret". Only dated Monday afternoon.
