I am concerned for the poor Captain: henceforward should he ever feel
bold enough to mount again, venture <add> a himself in a similar </add>, your Lordship in order to act the more completely
the part of the good Samaritan by bein would do well I think, to
"set him upon your own beast", meaning either Ld Abingdon or the
Miller: in upon either case of those I take it he would without that it be comparatively safe: for granting that
he might stand a chance of shambling every other step, yet I have
too good an opinion of their prudence of their considerate
to suppose that either of them could ever be prevailed upon
to rise to a pace sufficient get into such a pace that could to make a tumble serious.
As to the fiery courser which stands at has hitherto been disgusted by
his name I would humbly recommend propose that he be now christened
and that some man of skill and spirit myself for example
be pitched upon for his godfather, in which case I would
farther more than an act of oblivion be passed at Bowood, forbidding
under the severest penalties henceforth for ever more all ment every thing that
could tend to revive the memory all mention of the Corsham expedition.

I beg my most My respectful compliments to Lady S. & Miss F: it
would be a most flattering circumstance to me if I could persuade
myself that either of them or any [had any separate of & individual share ] were separately
and individual share in dictating the kind remembrances which
have purported to have been addressed to me by [come [from] all Bowood. I am particularly anxious to
know hear whether Miss Fox has found any body to give cheek
to since the only man she could depend upon in that way has
lost had the misfortune to lose her service: whether for example the gallant Colonel after the rebuff
I was witness to has ever summoned muster'd up courage enough to
face
