Mr W. appearing I thought it as well to make some enquiries
I called accordingly before between 6 & 7 this afternoon at the Blossom's
Inn where he had put up last time. He was not there then they said
but had been. He had called yesterday or the day before, they
said, they could not recollect which, and — who could have
thought "his wife was with him. They were at the house of
some acquaintance the people said; so they understood: but they
put up at the Horse and Leaping past Black Friars Bridge.
Is not this a little singular? They could call at this Inn, and
yet they would not call upon-me. I wonder what is become of
W's promises: —And Mrs W., too? I wonder whether they
intend calling. They had not at 1/2 past 7 this evening: at least
I saw no signs of it. I was at home all this morning & all
yesterday morning, the door not shut — also the greatest part by
far of yesterday afternoon & evening. Shall I go after them? I
certainly would not if this business of the Mortgage were not at
stake. I believe I must endeavour to find them out tomorrow
morning, tho' likely to be an unwelcome guest; at least to one
of them. In such a situation of affairs what can M<hi rend="superscript">rs W.</hi>
have to do in town?
So much for the present— If tomorrow produces any thing, I
will write to you.
I have got a whole parcel of things of my poor snail's as
Mrs D. calls her to take out of pain— How lucky it is just now
that I happen to have a prospect of a little heard earned pelf!
