London Sep.t 23. 1783

Dear Sr

I read the favour of yours and as the game you offers
is of so high a nature, think I cannot refus to accept if
not too high seasoned. I think were I to give two
Guineas for every sheet of translation, making 16 pages
in 8vo, it would be a handsome offer, translation
is generally but one Guinea a sheet

As to title, that might easily be Settled, and a knowledge
to the publick easily insinuated, without any
appearance from whence it came of who it concerned
in the writing.

I shall be very Secret in the business, you shall not
appear without your own consent

The last ship that goes for Petersburgh, is the
Hannah Cap.t Bettington & sails on Saturday, she
is at present at King Stairs.

Brownrigg on Salt is very Scarce, I will
endeavour to pick up one for you.

I am Sr
Yr humb. Serv.t
