To Reveley

In the business you have of your own you to get/
I heartily wish you a good and pleasant journey: and
if you could contrive without inconvenience
to yourself to later for me with you the plates
that were sent to Mr Nepean, I should
be much obliged to you, and my
it would first occasion I beg to know &
would repay you with thanks. In this
view I inclose/enclose you a note for Mr Nepean:
for I much fear that of all
that were sent to him not a single one has ever
gone. What have gone have been sent
by an in small parcels by the post. +
+ Mr Nepean's office is in L Grenville's office just by the Treasury Whitehall. His house is in St James, Place. Should he not be in the office when you call there, there will be Clerks there, I suppose, who will wither let you have the impressions, or tell you what to do in order to get them. I am Dear Sir Your's &c J.B.
P.S. Pray let me know whether you take the impressions or no taken</unclear> the impressions or no
You ask me "whether if any thing on
"the Panopticon business should cause you
"to stop I think suppose you would be
"paid for the delay? I am My answer
is, that if you do stop these/them on that business
or do anything at all in relation
to it as will be entirely your own doing:
which I think puts the "hardship" out of
the question case, and that who it is that will themselve
paying you a farthing for it is more than I
can imagine.
