My good Friend, Mr Sambouski, begs me to intreat you
to send the Inclos'd by some safe hand.
There are few Men whom I esteem more than this
same Sambouski. The degree of respect he meets
with here is very great; Meskejoff & He were both
with the Grand Duke on his Travels and of course
are come back.
I have certainly as many friends as comes to
the Share of One Man.
You, or my Father, have heard something to the
prejudice of my Mechanical Friend; It proceeded
partly from some money concerns in which some People
here were the sole cause of what appeared a want of
probity in him, and partly from his professing &
associating with those who profess'd, no great respect
for some religious opinions.
"Projet d'un Corps de Droit" how I rejoice that it
is nearly finished; but can't the word "Projet" be
chang'd for one less obnoxious; I, who am more
prudent, have entirely blotted out that word from
my Dictionary.
