I wish you had been a little more explicitly about the purpose
for which you want the Cork Jackets— You have one for
your self— whom else can you want one for— Your Crew
all of them I suppose can swim— If for use, a guinea
for a week's use, that is for a day or two's, which is as
calmly as we shall go out, is not worth which.
As to the Dr, flatter not yourself with the thoughts of his
going upon and such expedition. It is time that with a Cork Jacket, there can be no danger: but that is an
argument, only with those only who consult their reason.
As you know has better counsel.
As to the Compass I am afraid to venture without further
directions. What Diameter? In Brass or what other
material? Strung upon Gimbels (is not there such a way)
or in what other manner? about what price? whereabouts
I might as have say as to price?
Bed____, do you want Blankets and Sheets as well as
the Matress?
I shall not go into Hampshire till Thursday. This is .
You will reverse this scrawl on Saturday— write on Sunday
I shall receive your letter on Monday time enough to
execute your comemtions you persist in them.
"In a hurry?" why are you then? what's the matter with you
