Anthony House Sept: 10h 1783.
near Plymouth. —

Mr Pole Carews Letter
dated Sept. 10. 1783

Dear Sir

Your Favor of the 29th Ult did not reach me
at this Place till the last Post; I shall ever esteem it an Honor
to be reckoned among the Friends of your Brother, & shall be ever
very thankful to you for the Communication of any facts which
tend either to his Satisfaction or Advantage. I fear that I
may have given to Mr Bentham a Fruitless Walk into
Grosvenor St: it shall be my business when I return to Town
(which will be very shortly) to wait upon him. & I will be careful
to forward as you desire, the Letters you have received. —
Mr Rashleigh whom I saw yesterday thinks himself much
obliged by your kind attention to his Enquiries —
I have just now sent him your Translation of Bergman's
Essay on the Usefulness of Chemistry, the Method & Purport
of which pleased me much; but as I am unfortunately no Chemist,
Parts of it were too Chemical to be read by me with Ease. They have
however served to confirm a strong desire I have ever had, tho'
without a proper opportunity of gratifying it, to make myself
Master of the Elements of Chemistry —

I have this very Day received very great Satisfaction from the
Perusal of your Observations upon the Draught of the Hard-Labour
Bill. As I am almost a Stranger to the Modern Parts of Our
Legislation, I may venture to ask if any advantage was taken of the
many useful Hints you have furnished ?

I am perfectly Innocent of having
