Friday 22 July 1778
We propose being at the King's head
Horsham
Monday morning by 9 o'clock. The Court will sit at
12. Our cause stands second of the causes enter'd this
assizes: but whether 3 or 4 causes that were left untried
the last Assizes (they are called remanets) will have the priority or no
we can not tell.
We shall sleep on Sunday night at Dorking 12
miles short of Horsham
There came to day by the penny-post a letter
for you for as stiff as buckram from Mr Davies.
I mean only as to the stile: for it will rather please you
upon the whole. He wishes you to forbear publishing
till he sees you; intimating obscurely that he proposes to
plan to appear not dissatisfied. — I will take care
to bring it with you.
If you should not meet with us or hear of us
at the King's Head you must be lounging about near
the Court House.
Wilson is not of our party — He goes before.
Mr Browne and I come in a one horse chaise
Mr Browne is waiting for my letter.
It will be some small satisfaction to one to hear
of your having made a successful trial of your double rudder
scheme when we meet— but the Lord's will be
done !
There is a probability of our causes not coming on the first
day.
