Dear Papa Queen's Col. Tuesday Decr 16th 1760.

I take the opportunity of Mr Skeate's going to town to town to write
you a line or two: he called upon me this afternoon this afternoon, to
this afternoon is repeated
ask me whether I had any commands to London, for that he was go-
-ing there early tomorrow morning: I asked him to stay and drink Tea with
me; but he could not, for he told me he was going this afternoon to
Dr Hunt who is Professor of something, the Oriental Languages I
believe, (but that you know best) so I told him I would trouble him
with a Letter to you. — he told me he should be glad to see me, when
he comes to Oxford again, which will be in about a Month hence,
I am greatly at a loss for St..ke Bands; since I can have but 3 one
Week & 2 another, (for the Washer-woman comes every Saturday for with the
clean things, and Monday for the dirty ones) which is by no means
sufficient; for I ought to have at the least 4 a week; so I wish you
would send me that band which was found in the coach, as soon as
you can; unless you intend that I should come down in a day or two's
time; and indeed now I may come any time, for the Term is out:
there were three bands made me when I stood for College; I wonder
what's become of those: — I want some Green Tea too, for since nobody
here drinks Bohea mine's all gone, except enough to make breakfast
