to set off for Stockholm directly.
But to do this I must be indepted here at least
400 pounds. 200 I have already drawn upon
Mr Sharpe
for while I was on my journey, and
for expenses. I must now be at here, together with
those on the way home, I cannot take less
than 200 more. He 'tis true without my asking
had offered to supply me with that or more.
My determination is after a most tormenting
consideration to accept of Sharpe's offer and
set off as soon as I have taken leave of those
in this country to whom I am under so great
obligation. This will be perhaps a week or
a little more. I believe I shall pass by also.
I cannot hear from you till in answer to this
till I reach Copenhagen. By the next post
I will give you further instructions about
places where I may find letters from you.
If by these letters encourage me in my return
I may see you before the year is out. but if by
this step I have displeased my friends God knows when I shall
see you. Adieu.
