1 Jan. 1779.

Did not you say that you were to have 4 Guineas
for a journey you took on Mrs Acworth's account? And
pray have you brought to account the 3 guineas which I
paid to Peter &c at the first trial over and above what
Browne paid, and which I d made you give me?

What will we do about the things? I have just been
at Orange Court looking up at every house & can find no
such thing - true it is that it was between 7 & 8 - & most of
the houses were shut up — I must go again at day light
If I can not find them then neither you must e'en take your
chance with caustic Alkali.

I have had today a myrmidon writing for me.

The weather was so excessively bad yesterday afternoon
I could not go after the things — I could have wished not to
have gone by day-light 1st for shame 2d on account of the loss
of time.

Was the Inn you went enquired at about the Cot &c
the Blue Posts? That is the Inn they should have gone to.
Send me word immediately, & I will make the people pay-me.

2d Jan.
11 o'clock at night

I have just read your letter of yesterday - The wind-
gage I have got from Nairne's but have not sent to you.
I can return it if you please - it costs but 7s-6d It has
a sliding ruler to it

I have just been spending the evening with Sambouski
We are as great as Inkleweavers — He will think himself
much obliged to you He would not hear me talk of referring him
