Dear Sr.
Egham Oct:r 26.th 1790.
Particularly unfortunate did I consider Myself
by my Absence from Home, when I found Yr Letter, signifying
Yr very kind intention of taking my House in Yr way,
I have now this Plea to urge for the Expectation of that
Pleasure, the nearest Road to Reading, consequently to Bath,
is thro' Egham, from which my Abode, is distant half a
Mile. Some 20 years ago I had the Pleasure of receiving You as
My Guest. When A Man has devoted that Space of Time to the
Information & Improvement of Mankind, with singular Credit
to His own Abilities and integrity of Heart, it highly flatters
my Ambitious hopes, to renew that Acquaintance, as an Honor
to Myself and agreeably to participate the Utile dulci.
Many gratefull Thanks are due from Me to the Great Author
of all Goodness, Who has bestowed numberless Blessings on Me.
Not among the least of These do I consider that I am enabled
to gratifie Myself with the enjoyment of my Friends, in such
a Manner, as They may choose, either by retirement in a
spacious House, or the Society of a numerous Family. How far
