I certainly before proposed to you tho
printing the French edition here at
Petersbourg as I am not there it may
be as well not. What would be the expence
of a Printing press with a compleat apparatus
of the very best types if possible such as
Baskerville's. I know nothing
that
. How delighted the Prince would
be to have a printing house at his
Estate in his Government where
he might have printed superiour
editions of Classical & other books.

I do think we may be might comfortable
wqhen you come if we get such a
collection of clever people.

There would be no obligation to any
of the people bringing females if
they be such an tollerable good
housewives they wont be at all a charge.
To be quite comfortable I think you
should find a pretty housekeeper to
Sit at the head of our Table
and to turn down the bed
you would The women here would not
suit yout Taste at all.
