assets have been found, I can not conceive: he says nothing; and you may imagine
I do not ask him.

My best respects wait on my Mother: to whom I hope her residence
at Bath has been as agreable, as to you it has been serviceable.
Mr W.'s Compliments. You know who I am, & if you did

being let into the secret.
