Dear Sir
Queen's Square Place, Tuesday Aug: 26. 1794
Leaving my name at the door of your office just now, I
was informed that you were very busy as well as unwell, for both
which reasons I forbore attempting to trouble you. In the latter respect
I sympathize with you the more sincerely as it happens to be
in some measure my own case. I shall return to Hendon tomorrow
morning early, and make another attempt on Friday, between
which day and the present it may possibly be in your power to procure
me the Yes or the No, to one or other of which, after what has
passed, I can not help conceiving myself to have some pretensions.
My object in wishing to trouble you, being only to solicit the one
or the other answer in writing (for words speak in fact to on such an occasion conversation, as you <add>in your
words spoken to one man can not be expected to be current with another will perceive <add> office would amounts to nothing) elsewhere
nothing) if it should be in your power in the mean time to obtain
for me and transmitt to me <add>such official answer, it will not only afford me the greater put the speedier periodsatisfaction to my sufferings, but save you from a conversation task which I am as fully
