[come] sennight (as my Grandmother used to say. I will put it
off till the Monday following: I will stay at Whitchurch
till the Monday after that (this day 3 weeks) by which time
I suppose you would be able to meet me at Totten in
the manner you proposed.
For "each to each" say "each to its' correspondent one "
Each equal to each spoken of the two pairs of any-things is
properly speaking all four equal. "Either to either",
is to this purpose the same as "each to each". I say to
this purpose — for to another it is not like an example.
"I have a pear and an apple: you have a pear and
"an apple: you shall have mine, either of them. What
do I mean by that? this. viz: you may have the pear, but not the
apple: or the apple but not the pear: which you will
but not both had I said "each" of them, 'twould have been
the same as if I had said "both" On the other hand if I
said My pear and my apple are equal to your pear and your apple, either to either 'twould have been the same
as if I had said each to each: that in which case they are
all four equal taken separately: and therefore both mine taken together equal

meet with a Clergyman of the name of Downes. He is a very agreable man an Irishman has been
some years abroad: If they think proper they may give my Compliments to him, by way
of introduction. he is an old College acquaintance I have lately spent some hours every
now and then in his company.
