Moscow Augt 20. 1790
Hond Sir,
It is now five weeks that I am
at Moscow, that is a fortnight more
than I have spent in any one
Place since I left Cherson, which
is now about a year & an half
ago. I have made during that
time about Twenty five thousand
Versts, & have a Couple of thousand
more to make to meet with my
Price. The Peace made with
the Swedes, it is to be expected,
will soon be followed by with
the Turks; but these are Events
less interesting to me than you
can imagine, as I have no Idea
of undertaking any Employment
in any other Part of the Country
than Siberia.
