1777.

Hon:d Sir

You have probably been surprized at my
taking no notice all this while of your last favour which
is dated so long ago as the 19th of last month, and was
sent, you say, by Major Brace. The fact is it did
not reach me till yesterday evening, and then at an
hour too late for me to send an answer. It was forwarded
to me by Mr Wilson, who going to my chambers for
something he wanted found that together with a letter
of old date from Mr Davies which contained nothing
worth mentioning. My answer to that of your's which enclosed
the draught you have had, I hope, long ago.
I had the pleasure at the same time of hearing by Mr
Wilson of his having met you in good health. By him
as well as by my last letter you have been informed of
my intentions of paying a visit to this place previous
to my return to London. I should have written to you
from hence before now if I had known before hand
that I should have had so long to stay. The case is,
there is a part of my book, in composing which I have not occasion
