2 Thames Bank Place
Millbank – Friday Evening
Dear Sir
Mr. Rey called on me this morning to desire that I would make
the following communication to you —
He says that his father was a
Distiller and at Grenoble, and
that he himself is thoroughly aquainted
with the process of making Cherry-Water
Kirschen-wasser &c — that two
Frenchmen had established a concern of
this sort in London, but having committed
some imprudent acts, they have become
embarrassed — that if he could procure
a loan of £ 300 one half for the Distilling apparatus
&c and the other for a capital to
commence, he could carry on this
business and his Literary Labours at
the same time, and gain an abundant
subsistence. — Having taken an insterest
in his welfare, he was induced to apply
to you with a view to know whether
you could either yourself, or trough
any friend or aquaintance procure
