expedition that is projected - I like not the thoughts of it
at all: it can not possibly be executed without an expence
very unsuitable to the circumstances of all parties. Mrs D.
is by no means in a condition to bear it herself — and you
are as little in a condition to treat her. Mr W.'s circumstances
make the best of them must be far from affluent.
I can not comprehend why it should be necessary for him to travel
in a Post Chaise; certainly it cannot be necessary for him
to saddle himself with the expence of two women all the
time he stays.
Nairne's election came on yesterday — he succeeded. There
were 18 Black-balls, & 72 white. Scarce ever was there
known so great a number present & I got him 4 votes.
I will call on him on Monday about the Pelican ...
I must have done ... I am called off.
Mr Clark has enquired about the assets — They turn
out to be considerably more than £25,000 — how much
exactly I cannot tell you now.
