My dear Sir,
I have received yr two letters from Perme & Catherineberg
of the 8 decr & 10 janry: I am glad to hear you go on
so pleasantly & that your journey has so
answerd yr expectations.
You may depend on my taking very personal care of
any boxes & ce you may send to my house — neither myself
or any of my hands are very curious on Minerals — You
will oblige me if you can purchase a fine black bear
skin muff, such as one sent to Constantinople, & understand
they are to found no where but in Siberia —there any
other rare necktie would be welcome to me — you will
regulate the price according to yr judgement.
Yr model of a sailing chanil was yesterday
shewn to the Empress & gave her very great satisfaction —
what she will do with it I cannot pretend to say —
I am dear Sir
Ever yrs
Mams
Petersbg.
Feby 5th 1782.
