reach of thise law rigour of this law In future never send
any parcel but by means of a friend who can secure it
with his own baggage.

When you see Anderson or any body else likely to be acquainted
with the subject ask him if he has ever known Wheels of
cast iron used instead of rolling stones to bruise the
seed in oil mills, and what objections he sees to such a substitute.
In many places I imagine the stone rollers of stone
may be cheaper; but that would not be the case here.

Capper is returned and his having seen you all has
attached me to him. It is probable we may be concerned
together in the creation of an oil mill which gave rise to the
above question. In a model he has brought with him
from England there is an apparatus for bruising the seed
by making it pass between two iron rolers of small diameter
which is to the seed is to be subjected to before it is exposed
to the pressure of the great stone rolers: this he says is a late
invention; but as it requires more workmanship that is easy to
be had here I think cast iron rollers to act in the manner the
stone ones do at present may be made to do the whole business.
