Forster is eng sly in a event upon my
recommendation. Did I tell y t before? I forget. Upon
my saying in a conversation I should like very well to
have 5 or 6 pupils &c to w under me, he offer'd himself
for one: this I would not accept f, but took advantage of the
disposition he shew'd himself to be in to put him upon a
subject in which he could w upon a line with me.
It was a work of the censorial kind on the Laws of Debate
in corporate assemblies. His knowledge of Parliamentary
affairs gives him a fund of materials for it.
Poor Wilson is a good deal out of sorts at finding his
Father much more impaired in mind as well as body than
thought to find him: his sister too he does not seem to speak
of with much pleasure and fears she will be spoilt.
I have begun my Code of Criminal Laws which I take more pleasure
in than my Punishments. If there should
I shall give it the preference over them as -sented
by July next. If it should succeed it
'à produire" any where upon the Continent. Q.
me not to let it be known, & I lieve I shall
advice.
Friday Sept. 11th 1778.
L.I.
Since the letter I sent with the Bn. note I sent another
for you to Mr Lloyd containing advice about exposing
yourself, instructions for a narrative of the proceedings of the
Fleet &c. I sent it Aug. 31st.
