Have you had no more letters from Mrs W. since that
you shew'd me? I should think by this time she must wonder
her sister has given her no account of any thing she has done about
the boarding scheme. It will be necessary I suppose for me to say
something in answer to her sham letter. W. said nothing to me
about it. (meaning the scheme) Wilson every now and then talks of it,
and with apparent pleasure. He counts the days: which is next to
wishing them away. It is a real mortification to me not to be able to
shew him one letter in three that I receive. Entre nous too I
borrow'd of him that £10, which must have set him a thinking. He
talks of our going to the country about the middle of June; for then
it is that Term ends: so that in three months' time we should be
ready. As he as W. has held together thus long it is possible and let us
hope he may hold on till it will be time for us to go
.
Monday . March (10th I believe) 1777.
