A quantity of rare seeds are just come
from Petersburgh by last nights post in all
about 350 dift: parcells. Many of them from
China & Siberia to be delivered to a Gentleman
of this place, I have requested they may
not be sent away for this evening that you
may see them if you can spare so much
time I have had a very difficult job to
collect the parcels from the Vessels &
customhouse and I am sorry to observe
they are not all come to hand however I
have got 23 parcels of yours here and hope
to have the remainder on Sunday morning
I should be glad to know if you are to
Sleep here this night; as your bed is ready
for your reception I suppose you well
will not like to trespass too far on the hospitality
of Mr Humphries
