worth while to put you to the expence of a couple of guineas,
and myself to the trouble of two Coach — that is sick - journeys
one of them by night. You say nothing of the time of your
further stay: but I conclude it cannot be more than a month
at farthest.
I am just now made happy by a letter from Sam dated Amsterdam Sept. . I hope
you will receive it at the same time with this: but his obligations to
Lind are such, that as Lind is very desirous of seeing his letters, I
can not do otherwise than give him the opportunity; and as some of the
intelligence in it is political, and earliness is every thing in intelligence
of that sort, I can not wait the return of a packet from Imley
before I send it him.
My brother's le 2d letter went from hence on Friday last, the same day I rec'd it directed to
Lind. I desired him to forward it the day of his receiving it; and took measures
which I hope have proved effectual for it's being forwarded in case of his not
being at home. My respects to my Mother and Far. Not to overload the weekly
frank, I have just room to tell you that I am your dutiful and affectionate Son
J.B.
I shall take advantage of a cast from our friend the Alderman
to greturn to London on Thursday 23; and from thence the next day
or day after shall go on to Brompton. Pray let me have all Sam's letters
letters &c by that time to shew to his friends there.
