Friday March 8th I believe it is. 1776. Linc. Inn.

Tout doucement, mon cher ami: n'allons pas si vite. My tooth-ach is in a manner gone.
A great deal depends you know, on the unbulkiness and un manageability
(add these words to your dictionary) of the apparatus.
In this view therefore, the one thing needful to be known,
and that d'abord, avant toutes choses, is what degree length
of tube, what diameter of the cylinder inscribing the, spiral worm,
what distance between the threads, in short what proportion
in the volume [solid content] of the refrigerating fluid it will require
to that of the refrigerand (supposing the refrigerand
to be aether) in order to condense the latter; and this in
that [degree of the] heat of the atmosphere which can be depended
upon as being the greatest which the ship can ever
be in.

The Sea itself will can hardly be made to do for a refrigeratory. Since
for this purpose it must be in every part of it higher than the bobing s place
where the condensed fluid is to re-enter the magazine: the
if it should be condensed in the low part (which it may do
be in cold weather, and not in hot) there it will stay, and
so much of it will never come into circulation. It is for you
to determine whether it [the machine] can be conveniently observed if kept
in the hold for instance, below the surface of the water.

You must moreover make allowances for the changes of position
the ship is liable to undergo in storms; though these
you will say, will never be of long continuance.

Another thing. The time piece itself I take it for granted
must be hung upon gimbols or somwhat of that sort. The
refrigerating apparatus must therefore be being connected with the
time-piece must therefore rest upon the same gymbols. This
