Whitchurch July 8th 1784
Hon:d Sir
Having made a sort of half promise in my last, I
thought you would be disappointed if you did not receive something
from me by this post. I have accordingly begun, but my
eyes will not suffer me at present to proceed any farther. Writing
does not hurt me, but the reading seems blind hand is very trying
to me. Possibly I may be able to continue next post; but I
can not take upon me to give even a half promise. The post
now goes out hence and comes in hither every day. This convenient
regulation began yesterday.
Your's dutifully & affectionately
J. B.
You got back again the French account of the Crimea which I borrow'd
of Maty, and after returning it to him received of him again. As he
himself had but borrowd it of Dr Lort (of Saville Row) I hope
you have returned it to him again before this time.
