3 o'clock
This instant came your letter dated Chernobyl.
I shall say no more about it till I
have finished my present subject. That from
Pullawa I have never received.

say he should make the proposal to his bookseller,
but asked leave to call for the other
sheets: and > in that state of uncertainty I quitted
him. I did not care to ask whether he intended

What are they all to you exclusive of the want?
The want is that he wrote immediately to his
bookseller: the very next post. If by possibility
the Bookseller should refuse I must then propose

a journey to Bath has set him up again:
He is now about returning.

A good decent interval of about two months

what a gap this must leave in your history,
and what a loss I must be at to know what
you have been about! You must give me some
idea of what you have been doing at ,
and some account of your reception at your
hospitable friends.
You tell me of my letters having been got
into Shairpe's hands & sent rambling up and down
the country, where possibly they may be lost. This the
circumstance has been taken in to consideration by Q.S.P.
