My dear Sam,

I am very glad to find you take your exotic acquaintance
to Q.S.P. & cou'd have wish'd myself at home to entertain

with you; — I hope your friend Lindegreen will prove very
Advantagious to you, as well as an Agreable Acquaintance.
his Information & advice about you procuring the best
Accots. of the Prices & Value of Shipbuilding Materials of all sorts
will be exceedingly useful to you, & doubt not but you
will, as you obtain 'em at the several places & Persons you
visit, commit them all to writing, & not trust to your
memory - since you seem to have an infinite Variety of
facts to store yourself with. I expect, when ever I shall be so
happy to see you upon your Return, to find you quite a mongrel
in language, from the variety of People you will have occasion to
Converse with abroad. If you go to Holland first, it is not
unlikely but you may see Charles, at Amsterdam or elsewhere who will probably return
that way home, in Company with his friend Dr Chelss, who
went to Geneva about Six weeks ago in his attendance upon a
young Pupil, with whom he went abroad, for about three Months,
but I can't forbear wishing you may take Pouskin's Advice,
& make use of his Assistance, & then all will be as safe as
wind & water will admit of, remember me kindly to your
