circumstances, and the kind injunctions on your Lordship's
part which they gave birth to, were the means of my
laying on "all Bowood", by my company. I had indeed
as I have still, two a pretences for writing in store, which I
treasure up accordingly: I mean the delivery of the letter to Lord
Fizmaurice, and the execution of the commission I was honoured with to Colonel
Skene: but it may be some time yet before I may have
occasion to trouble any thing to say to your Lordship on either of thoseat subjects.
[ The article of time of doing it I take for granted is not imvery material, as
nothing so or it be as far within in the course of three weeks or a month ] I take
For granted there is nothing pressing in it in that presses in point of time; since
nothing was is proposed to be done in it till your Lordship comes to town
which is not to be that is till the meeting of parliament. I shall therefore look upon
myself as being at liberty as things stand at present to defer going thither myself for a week or ten
days, by which time I hope to have off the guise of un
I pres present though I make the with some difficulty such use of my hand which as your
Lordship sees my finger it is still so tender that I am obliged to attend be attentive
to every motion I make. If however any reason should recur to your
Lordship for wishing me to see the Col. sooner, any intimation such wish of that
sort that effect shall be obey'd the instant I am appraised of it. it is convey'd to me<add> <add> reaches me In the
mean time I have written to Mr Hodgson to enquire where Col. Skene is
to be met with: but not having heard no answer I suppose he had left London
before my letter reached him before my letter got there.
