As to your coming here I still wish it as much as I did before
but dont be affraid that I built it all upon it or made any alteration
in my plan in expectation of it. I always considered
it as a thing liable to a number of obstacles though such
as I could not see not knowing your circumstances about work
&c. Besides unless many circumstances at present would not
admit of it. I had no idea of the difficulty there would be
in raising money in England. what my father tells me in his letter
puts that matter quite out of the question
I am perpetually
scratching out what I write.
Pleschifeff wrote you a letter in my absence which
by his account of it contained a parcel of stuff about his
sister and me and his on my conduct which
are contrary to his real opinion written with a kind
of when he was out of humour on account
of my being absent as you have not it
I hope you have not received it as it would tend
only to increase though without the Exact reason
the dissatisfaction you before entertained on my account
I long everpossibly to have Code or Introd in French.
