Your letter came to hand so late and the weather is so very bad,
that I doubt I shall not have time to send you the things
you mention. Wilson will not let you have silk garters
to your velvetrbreechs - He says it betrays their
being Manchester & not Genoa - Besides Buckmaster
says no Lady wears them.

Wilson 'd in just now a letter from his Father acquiescing in
his not going into the to Scotland as he had intended — He
talked at the same time of going into the country about
June — I asked him where? His answer was any
where, where I would. I shew him pieces of Mrs D's
letters, and she is growing more & more into favour with
him. He admires her writing greatly. As to Agmr Battle
scheme I am still almost afraid to mention it to him myself.
I'll tell you what - I wish you would write a
to me about it proposing it to me as if it were for the first
time [of your mentioning it]
