Millan Septr 7. N.S. 1780
"I    arrived here four days ago: and set off again for Petersburgh
this evening.   I am now at Baron Offenberg's, taking leave of him.   You 
 can have but a very short letter.   I am quite out of heart on account
of my not having yet received any one of your letters there 5 months 
 almost.   I received here a letter from Pleschijeff in which he tells
 me that Mr Shairpe notwithstanding the express directions I had given
 him to the contrary, has sent your letters to Moscow: whether they will 
 be sent back again or further  </dell on the Lord knows where all, I 
know not.  I learned on every other account with the excursion I have 
 made, I repent of it only from having missed your letters.   I am 
distracted with imagining the different things they may contain: This 
letter can not be any longer — I came here with the equipage of 
 my friend the Count Chadkiawitch: in this manner was I brought 
 all through Poland, and not permitted to pay a farthing of expence.
I hope you are all well: but you may be all dead.   I am better 
 than I have been since I left England; having almost got rid of my 
 piles.   I wrote to you twice from Chernobyl: and shall write as soon 
 as I arrive at Petersburgh. Adieu."
