I believe you must bring a carriage
with you it should be a Chariot with
a coach box and if possible for the
conveniency of your sleeping in the front
it might a part under the glasses
might open outwards to admit of
your laying at full length to sleep.
Such carriages are made for travelling.
If however you can dispense with
the lying at length so much the better.
If Mr Anderson comes with you
I would advise him to bring a carriage
likewise more especially if you should
bring as I suppose you will others enough
to fill the carriage with you.
The travelling expences would not be
encreased by the number of horses
required. You might have some
orderlies who would sit on the Coach
box and behind. A servant in
travelling always sits on the Coach box
with the Coachman.
The carriages should be crane-necked.
at least your's must be
as I mean you should leave it for
me, and for paying visits where there
are many carriages, there is no turning
round without a crane neck.
