anecdotes which I could wish to communicate to my friends but am affraid even to
mention the name of any one here, that same fear is the cause of my not profiting
by the permission which you procured me to direct my letter to Mr Frazer. The name
of the distinguished post he occupies on the outside of my letter could make its
being opened and even read through still less doubtfull.
I have a summons to tell me that the last moment when my letter
will be received at the post office is at hand. You or my brother will
hear from me again most likely by the next post. I am
Hond Sir,
Your most dutifull
and affectionate son
J.B.
We have had 4 or 5 days hard english winter frost
but now it is mild & raining again. A little snow
