Sir
I need scarcely assure you how
flattering it is to me to find my grin/gun rack
so well approved of by so able and eminent a judge,
nor what satisfaction it would give me
to see the execution of it put into such in such
good hands.
I long to take the
I shall think it long ere I take this
benefit of the instruction your politeness
has in store for me: and should be
glad to hear when you expart/express to me on
the return: this/the rather as I shall not
think I have done justice to either
or the public or to the inventor such as it is
without giving it the benefit of your corrections and improvements,
if the period be not so far distant. No one could possibly come to the
subject more ignorant than I was did, and
having no professional reputation to maintain
you would find me just as open to correction
as the youngest of your pupls pup pupils. #
