Hendon Middlesex Oct. 1788
Hon:d Sir
Double thanks to you for your the intelligence communicated by
your two letters the one from Cheltenham, the other from Bath. I have been
writing to Mr Barker to thank him and accept his offer. I had before taken
measures to the same end, which however were at a stand owing to the absence
of the persons of whose assistance I was assured.
I have just received the means of paying you with intelligence of a
more interesting nature. It is contained in a letter from Sams friend
Rynam which I do not send because the principal part, relating to
some concerns of Ryman's own must be kept to refer to, and it wou'd not
be interesting enough to you to pay me for the trouble of transcribing.
Petersburgh July 30 O.S. (Aug. 10th) 1788
" I am extremely happy to inform you, Sir, that your Brother is
" promoted to the rank of Colonel for his valour and prudence in two
" successful attacks against the Turks upon the Nieper. He is in
" good health. The publick papers here have announced his praise."
I am, Dear and Hon:d Sir
Ever Your's
J.B.
