either in Town or at Epsom, and that the same may not
have yet come to your knowledge, I take the liberty
of troubling you with this to beg the favour of you to let
me know by a Line whether you know of any such
Letter from my Son as is mentioned in your Father's
Letter to me, or whether you have seen Major Gall
or know where I may direct a Line to him, that I may be able to enquire
to make some Enquiry after my Son's Letter —
My Son when at Paris was then on his way to through the South
of France to Nice & thence to T & Constantinople —
and with a View to Crossing the Black Sea, to the Crimea, & thence into
Russia, to make a Visit to his you Brother
my youngest Son, who is a Coll. in the Service
of the Empress of Russia, but not as I knowing not
at what places he was likely to make any Stop
it might and wanting much to know when to write to him am not without hopes
that Some information may be contained in
his Letters wch I am so much in expectation of receiving.
I flatter myself therefore Let me therefore intreat you, that you will
have the goodness to excuse my giving you this trouble

to me, or if not, that you will let me know where
I may direct to Mr Gall, in order to enquire of him abt it

& your Lady, & shall be happy to hear you are both in health
having the honour to be with the est regard
Sr. Your most obedt Servant
