Dear Bentham!
I hope you have reeived the Encyclopedia by this time,.
I had Since my last received letters from Riga
that the Encycloped. and with chequer's dictionary arrived
there early in October and were imediately
forwarded to your brother to Petersburg —
as there are many vessels coming to Leith
from Petersburg to Leith early in Spring,
I offer you to take the Encyclopedia back
for the Same Price I charged you for viz: 10£10s
and to pay the expences of the retour, if your
brother will Send it back to me in good condition
under the direction D<hi rend="superscript">r. Swedian'r</hi> Edinburgh
Leith to the care of M<hi rend="superscript">r. gavin Kempt mercht
It is a book which I should not like to
possess myself and thereby Save you at the Same
time double and unecessary expences
