Queen's Col. Saturday Decr 21st 1760.
Dear Papa
Although you had not received my Letter when
you wrote to me, I suppose You have by this time, since You
are so kind as to give me my choice of the day of my going
to town, I have pitched upon next Monday for the day,
for the convenience of having the Company of one of my Acquaintance
of this Colledge, who was formerly of the Charterhouse;
he lives while at London, at an Uncle's of his,
at Cheapside. I have been to take a place at Kemp's to
day, and also to Mr Jefferson to ask leave to go home, and
intend to go to the Provost to day with a Latin Epistle, which
we all carry him when we ask leave out, it only consist
of a little form not consisting of above a line or
two. You may tell Sammy that I will come morrowday:
and as morrow day will come so soon, I here conclude
with the assurance that I am
Your most affectionate
and dutiful Son
Jeremy Bentham
I am very glad to hear my
Grandmama is so well: pray give
my duty to her.
