PRIMUM MOBILE Vapour.

What think you of a new one being found out? a new vapour?
Swede fell by accident in the way of a Dr Williams to house he
went at Pimlico. Williams was bred a Physician but has devoted
himself for many years to Chymistry. It was he who got
£2000 a few years from Parliament for inventing the new greens
and yellows you see upon Cotton & Linen Gowns. He has since that
invented several other colours: amongst the rest a straw colour &
a lilac that will never fade. Williams sees not a creature - has
not for some years gone out of his house or conversed with any of his former friends: it was by accident that Swede got to the speech of
him.

Well this Dr Williams told him of an engine that was erected
his neighbour that was worked as he said by a new discoverd
and he promised to get him a sight of it. What the
is is kept a secret. When Swede goes I am to be
of the party. I shall then I hope be able to give you some
account of it. But my expectations from it are not
very sanguine. Swede is apt to give an air of mystery to ordinary
things.

Write single sheet on your letters — I am
perpetually plagued with double charges.
