Hendon Thursday Sept. 4th 1794.
Poor unhappy divided Apple-tree!
Mr Smith's report of it is terribly unfavourable
- Never was so shaken in
his life! - could scarcely bear it: and
it draws heavier for the horse than a
common cart. He goes to town with
it to return it on Saturday morning:
he sets out not later than 6 o clock.
Now if you will come here tomorrow
and sleep here tomorrow night, you
may return in it in the morning,
and thence you will be the better
able to judge how much there is of
fact and how much of prejudice,
and whether the defects, if real, are
radical or curable.
I got no lift in it myself - I had a
hard matter to crawl to my journey's end.
Today the looseness is abated, but the nausea
and listnessness not quite gone.
