"Priestly" ? Not much of Priestly, since you, for whose sake I was
working upon him, have been peeping at the land where all they

Perhaps I may dabble a little that way myself — more especially
as I find that the new Air from Phlogisticated Alkali
is not obtainable with any heat that I think you can probably conveniently
give — It must be a white heat — I dabble? but
how you will say? with what assets? you may guess however
from the colour of the clothes in the pocket of which you will
find this letter — indeed probably know from some letter which you
either have received or will receive from my Father — Our
old Couzin is at last departed — She has left me £100 besides
10 for mourning. My Father will get, besides the extinction
of an Annuity of 7£ pr year for her life, about
after all sorts of charges & deductions about 600£ more
She used to tell me she had left me her Gold watch, but
I have heard nothing of it yet, perhaps as my conversation
with my Father about her affairs has been but short.
