Bowood Augs 28 — 1789

Hon:d Sir

The enclosed will serve to shew you how I happened
to find myself here. Instead of the one Miss Vernon therein mentioned, we
have both as well as Miss Fox. They came with my Lord from
Ld Warwicks in Sussex. Ld L. seems to bear his shock better
than was expected: a little touch he has of the Gout may perhaps
have been of use to him. But as yet I have scarce had
any private conversation with him, and he is gone out a riding
with a Capt. Jones of the Navy who lives at Bradford, and is
here I believe only for a day or two — I am just arrived in
one of the Night Mail coaches which I found to have much more
show in them than comfort in the construction — no place for an
elbow and the sides slope to you thus / \ rather than from
you thus \ / so that there is no rest for the head and sleeping
is impracticable.

I was in hopes before now to have received the copy you
had the goodness to promise me of Col. Fanshawe's letter. Ld L. upon
my announcing it to him has been waiting for it with impatience:
and it is an odd story I have to tell that I could not get my Father
to trust me with a paper declaredly sent for me. I missed by
this
