Sunday morn - 8
Hond Sir,
I am to this instant altogether in the dark.
Yesterday about 12 I sent a letter from Lind to Johnstone
at his house at Kensington-Gore, telling him that I was to
be at Adam's Chesterfield Street from 4 till 7 so that if
he had any thing to say to me within that time that he might
to save time send to me at that place; telling him likewise
that if they went so soon as Monday it would "scarcely" be in
my power to go at any rate — J. was not at home Since
then I have not heard a syllable
Adam told me that Storer told him on Friday they were certainly
to go on Monday — Whether Ferguson was come he could not
tell — I asked him without telling him of the interest I had in
the question. This long silence compared with the extraordinary
eagerness he testified to Lind is singular enough. Last night I made Lind
repeat to me yesterday last night the communication which contained
some remarkable words. I have my hypotheses about
the matter, but those it is to of no use to mention as it
must be cleared up some how or other tomorrow.
Adieu. I must return again without loss of time that
I may be on the way.
