May the 1st [1772.?]
Dear Sir

Shoud this be fortunate enough to meet you at home and Shou’d you be disengag’d, I shall think myself in luck for as I cannot persue that pleasing scheme of passing a few days with you, I cannot but desire to see you some where and therefore cou’d you indulge me by dining at Sir Charles Blunts in Ormond Street this Day at 3 o Clock, we hope you will [meet?] Dr. Hawkesworth. I mention’d this as a[n ind]ucement, yet am angry with myself that I did, for your behaviour is always such as convinces me, you are not only ready but desirous to oblige your Humble Servant
