You may depend upon my executing your Commissions some day
this week. If I should send any thing in a french don't open it before
company.

that you want to advise with him upon? If you have, can't you
talk with him upon that point alone without communicating
to him your general design? Au pis-aller, you might tell him that
you have your reasons for being able to say that you had communicated
it to nobody &c.

Tell me 1 how Peake likes his boy?
2. whether you hear any thing of
a place for Shillito?

Wednesday night

I have been dining at Davies's - Wilson there and
one Roberts a Sea Officer an old acquaintance of D.'s (but
a stupid sort of an animal he seems) and Browne. Browne
has th day received the money from Bargrave of Fosters
I have rec'd your letter of yesterday.

I have not time to transcribe Forster's letter from
Petersburgh — the result of it is that from my letter to
him there seem some little hopes for me, but none for you
There is however something of a channel of communication open'd
He seems very well disposed to serve us, but not near so able
as we had understood from that report. He gives a very
good account of the reasons of his silence.

I shall send you the wastecoat and the book —
by the Coach that sets off to night from St Clements.
Hang it I think I will send you Foster's letter: transcribe
it, & then send it back to me the first opportunity
for instance with the waistcoat - Send me the wastcoat
immediately, unless you want it for some particular occasion
- or within the a week. Former letter Wind gage

Then I will look over your former letters Pucelle I see nothing of. Wind-gage &
the other things I will see after tomorrow [I have just been carrying the packet to the Angel
behind St Clement's: the Carriage will be in by 3 or 4 in the afternoon at the Crown in Portsmouth
