Edinr 14th September 1784
Dear Bentham!
I have received yours last night; and shall do accor
ding to your direction. If you had written some
days sooner, I would have had a fine opportu
nity to send any thing to Petersburg; the ship having
left this place last friday. — The Encyclopedia
is in 9 volums bound, as I promised you,
the 10th or last volum is not yet published
on account of the proprietors disagreement
amongst one another — I shall send these
9 volums with the first vessel, for which
sails from Leith to London under the direction
of another vessel going to Petersburg this season.
I have been exceedingly well since I left
you, and my work goes on very briskly;
I shall spend this winter here, and arrange every
thing in such a manner that I can go afterwards
where I please — a fashion I am long accustomed
to — I am obliged to you for your account
of Kempen's but wish you would be more explicit
