Penrith 22d. July 1792
Dear Bentham
On my arrival here last
night I rec'd three Letters from you
two of the 16th. June and one of the 21st.
If they had been, or rather if one of
them had been, directed to Bowood,
or London, it would have certainly
prevented all the confusion which
ensued, but what is past cannot be
help'd, and you had better say nothing
to Ld. Wycombe about it. In
future you will remember it is a
Rule to direct to Lansdown House, except
you are quite sure that I am
at Bowood.
I should acknowledge a subsequent
Letter which I rec'd in due course but too late
to do any good, and would have answer'd
it notwithstanding, but I
Identifier: | JB/541/354/001 "JB/" can not be assigned to a declared number type with value 541.
