You will probably have a message from Erskine Keppel's council
who brings you a letter from Q.S.P. in which is a
B Note of £15. Q.S.P. desires that if you would wait for
3 or 4 days to see whether he will send to you: if not, that you
will call on him to ask him for it. Hargrave it is said
has 300 guineas for going down, besides preceding fees.
Upon turning to your first letter about the Cub I find
you tell me there have already been Russians at the Academy,
& that what the Comm:r was afraid to do was the suffering a
Russian to be enter'd as an Apprentice. in the
I read to day first to Q.S.P. and alone afterwards to him
& Madam your letter giving an account of your first rencontre
with Mrs & Dr Lind. I have read to him several passages
of your other letters all about Dr Lind & even your
random thoughts about going to the E. Indies with Capt. Cooper
which did not seem to shock him at all. I read him a
good deal of what you say about the Cub. I read him
about Randal which I find you have copied in the letter
which Q.S.P. received from you to day.
