were to go to the Devil, it is impossible to suppose that there would
not be at least a dozen applications of the principle each of
which would be a marketable commodity without disposing
of the others: or if all other resources failed I would give him
any security he chose. As we are so likely to be so particularly connected
with him, and as he probably has some ready money to
much more than that amount at command without prejudice
to his business, it is better I think to try him than any body
else.
If an assurance of the money was obtained something might
possibly be done, some time be gained, before swearing time, and
consequently in your absence, without waiting for your return — I
could at any rate talk the matter over with Mr Poole and

patents had been taken out of late, and thence whether there be
among them any thing touching upon our ground.
