Dear Papa Sunday. September 13.th 1761.
Agreable to my Aunt's intimations that I should set out for London
soon that you might take a place for me to see the Crownation as every body calls
it, I have tarmined and come to a solution to let you know that I intend to be in town
on Wednesday next in the Newberry machine if there is room, if not. in one of the
Bath one's, as it is not convenient here to take a place for me at Newberry: as it .being uncertain
whether you will be in town to send the Chariot for me and my things, or indeed
if you could do that which Coach I should be in; you may if you please take a ride
to Turnham-Green to meet me, and in case you should, I will stop there and enquire:
if not, I will take a Coach from the Inn we stop at to Crutched-Friars.—
My poor Grandmama continues very ill, for these many days she has alltered a great
deal for the worse, tho last night again she has had a very good night, but these weak
efforts of Nature only serve to prolong the disorder not to destroy it.— my Aunt has
received a letter from the Widow. you can't expect any news from this Quarter surely,
or if we had any, it would only surfeit you, as you have so much publick News, but
I who hear scarce any, hope when I come to London to devour enough to satisfy the
rapacious Maw of
Your dutifull and affectionate Son
J. Bentham
Comps etc. from every body
wait on you and my Grandmama.
