hurt worth mentioning, although when they came to open the door to
let themselves out, (so completely a change had happened in the posture of their
affairs) they found they had been trampling for some time upon the
under of the top of the Coach. It will give my Mother, I hope, no small
satisfaction to learn that to the very end of the hurly-burly the
Church preserved that superiority which the Revd Dr Chelsom
I remember t'other day at your table took occasion to
on, with that modesty and good breeding which is the characteristic
of College-dignitaries, to remind us belongs to it over the Law. The Lawyer served
for a footstool to the Divine: one arm was coverd with powder from
his reverend wig: the other with dust from his holy shoes. Mr
W. got a slight bruise upon the back part of his head, which renderd
him for a few minutes rather confused, but has left no ill consequences
behind it. The poor child fared the worst; he got several
bruises about the face which swelled it considerably . The Horses
stood immediately stock still; the Coachman was thrown over into the
Hedge. The Timber Waggon that had been the cause of this catastrophe
was drawn by oxen: they were immediately yoked to the
coach and drew it out of the ditch.

I found Sam very well recover'd of all his ailments. Mrs
Davies is in treaty for a very commodious house; and if the
Landlord puts it in sufficient repair which in general terms he
has engaged to do, will go into it at Michaelmas. It is in Brompton,
has a little garden by behind it, at the end of which is a pleasant
Summerhouse. Garden I should hardly have called it: however it is
an open space big enough for the children to run about it in. The House
was occupied; so that when they took me to look at, we contented ourselves
with an outside view of it: but saw the garden from a Mr Clifton's
a Surgeon and Apothecary; which is within two doors of it.
