Critchoff April 2d 1785.
I received a packet of letters from you a few days ago
the last of which was dated Feby 7th except that there
were a few lines on the back of a letter of Notman's
to his wife of the 11th. This came by way of Riga the large packet
came to Petersburgh by a Russian Courier and was
dated Decr 24th in the last sheet
I have answered your letter
more fully by another conveyance but take the chance of
sending off this by Riga in hopes of finding you before you set out.
I am terribly affraid of your not having
any answers to your letters to the Prince at least

put a stop to your journey.
I wish excedingly you
could have contrived to have come youself and
have assembled your chosen here from whence when
we should have settled the plans together they might
have taken their departure Southward with or without
us, as circumstances should require.
I know there is a great deal of reason for the passing
through the Southern provinces of France and in short
