What fund the money is, that I may get the Blank power
of Attorney from the Bank, & by that means save the
time that it would take to get an answer from him? This
win if he were at Plymouth would be a fortnight. All the
time he has been on board the fleet he had received letters from
me but once before the 11th of this month.

Mean time I advanced him £10 being the amount of
his dividend immediately as soon as he mentioned it to me.
This makes an unexpected breach in my slender finances. If
you should happen to have that sum lying at your bankers
which you could draw for without inconvenience to
yourself, it would be a convenience to me if you
would be kind enough to send me a draught for
it. But as I could rub on without it I would not c you
to be at the trouble of getting or sending it in any other manner. You
will have to wait for it till the fleet returns from Plymouth
if he should return in a whole skin and as much longer as
it will take to dispatch the business of the power or Attorney
at this distance. All my most intimate friends are at present
out of the way: as to my Father he is the last person
I should think of applying to on such an occasion.

I am Dear Sir, with all respect

Your affectionate Nephew
