<p>Many thanks to the D<hi rend="superscript">r</hi> for the account of his thermo<unclear>statical</unclear> | |||

observations - I like <del>it</del> much - It seems very | |||

M<hi rend="superscript">r</hi> Nairne and his family I like wonderfully: they were</p> | |||
<pb/> | |||
<p>all exceedingly civil to me - and M<hi rend="superscript">r</hi> Nairne gave me | |||
<lb/> | |||
a general Sunday-dinner. You, I find, are quite upon | |||
<lb/> | |||
terms of intimacy there: <del>you</del> she spoke of you by the | |||
<lb/> | |||
name of <hi rend="underline">Sam</hi>. I never <add>that I remember</add> felt myself so soon at my ease | |||

make sure about the Assets first — see what grounds he
has to grow upon - for Mr D, says he never understood
it to be more than £3,000, and that the Dr knows
nothing of his father's affairs. In the article of person, as far as I can judge by
what I have seen hitherto, I think I give the preference to Miss
Clark: what I prefer pleases me in Miss S. is her little unacquaintence with London and the fripperies vacuities of the Queen's
-Square — Place-ish world.
I have little hope of decompozing Respirable Air unless
it be by Composed Elective Attraction.

Many thanks to the Dr for the account of his thermostatical
observations - I like it much - It seems very
well drawn up, both as to in point of arrangement and as to of diction.

in any family as there. One of the girls plays I find
upon the Piano forte: that will be a cementing principle.
Tomorrow I go to Mr Anderson's.
Whether Mr D. is commenced "simple" or no, is more than I can
tell. I have not been to Qu. P. since he was.
