It is now near almost twelvemonth since your two sons have heard a syllable
from their father: and this is neither the first nor the second time of
their expressing their concern they feel at so unprecedented distressing a silence. My
letters on the Inspection-House at least I was in hopes would have been favoured with
an a some notice. If they have failed of giving you satisfaction pleasure,
they have failed of one of their main objects. I have advice Of the
arrival of the rough copy I have advice: I have no tidings
of the ro fair copy ad (accompanied by a private letter) addressed
to you: except that we heard of its being sent from Riga
Willing to For the sake of doubling the chance of its safe arrival security assured sea - and under a certain

answer to his message through you. Of the receipt cl this packet
I have never had any tidings since.
This goes with a l I send by this same post under cover
to Mr Wilson, a pamphlet in defence of Usury desiring him to send it to the
press, or to keep it till he sees me, as he thinks fit.
