The Venison which you should have had is come to me. I
send you the letter that came with it from Mr James Carpenter
who I suppose is your Jim. Upon my word he writes notably.
to tell the truth, if I may take that liberty, I think, better if any
thing than his master: although his said Master's last letter
to do him justice, is a very good one. The mother, I suppose, in
-spired him.
Browne sets out tomorrow upon his travels to the West.
He will be at Plymouth either in about a fortnight or in about
3 weeks, according as he takes it in going to Cornwall or in his
return. I have given him your direction, that is as well as
I could give it. He asked me whether he could set me down
any where Westward. This put a scheme into my head.
It occurred to me that I might run down to you somehow
or other if you were at Portsmouth, and get him to give me
a cart home. The nearest place that lies in his direct road
is Whitchurch, which you know is 26 miles from Southamp-
ton. But he told me he should like very well to come and
take me up Portsmouth, or at least at Winchester where
he has acquaintance. Winchester is but 12 miles from Southamp
-ton: and there is a camp there you may remember. He ex-
pects he shall be so far on his return in about 5 weeks from
hence: but Mrs Browne will be able to inform me from his letters.
Now then if your business at Portsmouth should be done by that time, the return
may probably take place.
I send you your old wastecoat it being as it is ready-made, and as you
are in such a hurry. I send you a pattern of a waistcoat
I shall probably have, and which I may continue to let you
