I have been with Brind (I must confess not till yesterday
and he promised to send & take back your Coat this
morning & let you have another according to directions
This morning however has elapsed and he has not done
sent . As to the kind of Coat I did not think it advisable
to have that alter'd — there is none that better, & if you
had one of an inferior price you could hardly expect
him to return the difference . It was not worth while
altering the buttons on account of the weight : the weight
is constituted save by the kind of cloth — yes, you shall have
a plain cuff because that one with button holes like this
lets in the rain.
Wilson has looked over the cursed "Encouragement"
& made his remarks which I will send you when I send
the other things . He tells me there are a multitude of mistakes
in the copying — How could you send it to out of
your hands without looking it over and rectifying such mistakes
as those? Is it too much trouble to you to do the drudgery
part of a concern so much your own? I have-not
looked it over nor do I believe I shall . Why was not
the running title written ? it would have contributed to render
it a little less detestable .
I am glad to find you are likely to make your Dover
expedition answer so well in point of information .
