existing besides: but I confess I am not so anxious about the length of
time we may be together as that our pleasure during that time be without alloy.

I hope before this time you have received some letters for me which
I desired to be directed to Queen's Square Place. likewise the 1er of April
I dispatched from Leghorn by a Ship the Augustus Captn John Mudge 2 boxes
directed to Q.S.P. but immediately to the care of Messrs Smith & St Barbe
Brokers in London. The smaller case contained only minerals, the
longer contained chiefly papers & charts as also some few sealed
letters for different people and two pr of turkish short boots & slippers which
somebody charged me with for Ld Mainsbury. I tell you these particulars of the contents that in
case of any difficulties at the custom house you might know if there
be any thing prohibited. I have then to beg, Sir, with respect to
these 2 cases that you would be so kind as to send somebod
enquire after them. Of the arrival of such a Ship f
Leghorn I suppose you may have information from the n
papers. The object is that somebody should be present at the
opening them at the custom house that nothing be lost: and
if possible I should wish that nothing be deranged till I have them.
The freitage agreed for was twenty shillings.

I shall quit Paris not later I think than the middle of next week and
then I can foresee nothing but the winds that can delay the most
wished for satisfaction of your dutifull & affectionate Son
S. Bentham.
