Gatehina Grand Duke's Seat 45 versts from
Petersbourg Quine 14th 1867.
I very luckily came for a few hours to town, when I
received your little box with letters. Being obliged
to return to Gatehina, I had only time enough
to read over your reference page 27th, as it was
a post day, I immediately hasted with it to the
postmaster general, and recommended it to
his care: So, be easy on that score, your
packet, by this time, is travelling in Prussia
on its way to England, wrapt up in a fresh
cover and addressed to Mr. King Six Clerks Coffee
house, For George Wilson Esqr. I must acknowledge
to you that it is with some hesitation
I determined myself to part with it so soon,
and nothing but the utility, which you, and
Sam may reap from its being under press
without delay, could over-balance the eager
desire I had to read it atentively, the table
of contents, which I run over in very great
haste, has given me an idea of your work,
and the strength of argument, which I perceived
in some places, makes me think it a very valuable
production.
