I hope Mrs D. will not fail to send me the next letter she receives.
The dry-skin I send cost 7s. 6d It was the largest they
had — They said 4 pair of upper-leathers might be cut out
of it. I will have no more Seal Skin shoes - they crack & dint
wear well. The pair I bespoke I suppose are done - otherwise countermand them
That indolent beast Elmsly has not got the sheets for me to
see yet.

I have told Mrs W. in the letter I am just going to dispatch
to her along with the Book, case, Shoes &c that from her not writing I had begun
to fear she might have been tired of her correspondent &c.
by way of my not writing: that I had communicated my suspicions
to Mrs D. who told me she could assure me from
the best authority it was no such thing, but that Mrs W.
expected me to write - This Mrs D. must be aware of, that
we may be all in a story. The packet I shall send by
the Battle Diligence that goes from the Bolt & Fan tomorrow at
6.

Sunday eveng. 19 - Jan. 1777.
