engages to give answers. Macaulay appears to have laboured very
assiduously and intelligently in my behalf. his letter is as well-

Mr Lloyd tells me in a letter I receiv'd from him a few

he promises likewise to enquire at the Inns; also at the
Post Office for the letter. The purport of This letter was very little more than
to inform you of the parcel, in which a pretty long
one was inclosed. Under the same cover that incloses this
I write to him to tell him that I have enquired in town
about the parcel, and find it is booked at the Bell Inn
in Friday Street as having gone from thence on Thursday
Aug. 20th by the Plymouth Coach that puts up at the Pope's
Head Plymouth, and telling him of your being on board the
Victory on the 26th upon the invitation of Lieut:t Berkeley
to whose care I thought it might be proper to recommend
any thing that might be sent to you. Lloyd told me of his having
forwarded to you (under cover to Capt. Macbrade) a letter I sent inclosed to him for that purpose.
The Bank note of £10 which I sent in a separate
cover he tells me he thought it more prudent to keep till
he could convey it with more certainty.
I have nothing from you of a later date that Aug:
26th as above mentioned. I am quite sick with expectation
I shall send you no linen unless there comes another
letter from you about it telling me what and how.
Julia is gone to reign with the Angels — God be thanked
