St Petersburg Sept.r 15. O.S. 1789
Dear Sir
I received your favour with One Inclosed to your Brother
which I immediately forwarded to him in Siberia.
Mr Gould desired me to take charge of a Parcel addressed
to General Bandre — I gave it to Mr Monilaw who was
going to Magiloff. He writes me that he dined with the
General and gave him the Parcel. I am concerned that I
am not able to give you any Account of the Letters —
you enquired about. Mr Gould is now, I believe near
Bender.
Colonel Fanshaw is now with me, He speaks in
very high Terms of your Brother's Conduct, and says,
that the Construction of some Vessels by your Brother,
contributed chiefly to the Success of the Russians upon
the Loinan. In a Letter I received from your
Brother from Crichoff on his way to Siberia (where
he is to form a Regiment) he says, Prince Potemkin
behaved with great generosity to him, and more
than complyed with all his Requests.
Now, my dear Sir, give me leave to trouble you
once more on the disagreable Subject of my Son, I —
hope it will be the last time — a few days since
