Manufacturer whom Capper knows, & <lb/. who dined at Q.S.P. the day capper
dined there. In the Manufactories in
the neighbourhood of Manchester is to
be seen a variety of mechanism. Farr
was telling me t'other day of a man
with an odd name who had in a
short time made a matter of 50,000£
in that neighbourhoodby the invention of machines for abridging
labour. The mines in Derbyshire,
and the manufactories
at Birmingham, would then be in the
way to London.
Q.S.P. when they went to Scotland
paid for Postchaises for 1100
mile, which came to I don't know
whether it was £50 or 70 Lb£. This
would not be quite so may miles,
but as there has been a tax since
of I think it is 1 1/2 or 2 d a
mile, we will say it would come
to 60£. Thus for two Post-chaises
would be £120. I am afraid
there must be something of a Swiss
servant to dress hair, who would ride
in one of the chaises as the is,
except when <gap/ one came to a
great house, then he must ride
post thither and from thence. This
say would make it £139. two
guineas a day for travelling expences
for two months 60 guineas
allowing 7 pound for extra expences
that would make it £200. If it would be ten
weeks so much the better. While the
Sneaks were examining mines & manufactories
the Princess would be reposing in her
