Mrs. Stevenson has made up a Parcel of Haberdashery for you, which will go in Capt. Robinson. She will also send you another Cloak in the room of that we suppose lost in Capt. Kerr.

I wrote to you in Capt. Sparks, that I had been very ill lately. I am now nearly well again, but feeble. To-morrow I set out with my Friend Dr. Pringle (now Sir John) on a Journey to Pyrmont, where he goes to drink the Waters; but I hope more from the Air and Exercise, having been us’d, as you know, to make a Journey once a Year, the Want of which last Year has, I believe, hurt me, so that tho’ I was not quite to say sick, I was often ailing last Winter and thro’ this Spring. We must be back at farthest in Eight Weeks, as my Fellow Traveller is the Queen’s Physician, and has Leave for no longer as she will then be near her Time. I purpose to leave him at Pyrmont, and visit some of the principal Cities nearest to it, and call for him again when the Time of our Return draws nigh. My Love to Sally, &c. I am, my dear Debby, Your affectionate Husband
