The 6th. Inst: I had the honor of addressing you by post availing myself of the encouragement you had given to hope for a supply of Money from Monsr. Grand on account of the United States, I requested that Gentleman by the same conveyance to remit to me the full value of One Thousand or twelve hundred Guineas which I repeat in order to guard against accidents as my affairs will not admit of delay.
I am presently to commence a journey to Bath with my Sister in Law, where I shall stay no longer than shall be necessary to see her settled, perhaps not more than eight and forty hours, then return here and take the first good opportunity for proceeding to America.
Inclosed with this are the Remarks which My Son informed me you wished to have, I think they are highly honoured by your attention, the bearer Col. Harmar does not leave London till Wednesday or Thursday next I have intreated him to take some of the latest News papers for you. With great Esteem and Respect I have the honor to be Dear sir Your obedient humble servant
