I arrived here on Monday the 22nd last,
after a most tedious passage by sea of one forthight fortnight,
after I left you I called upon the gentlemen who were to
go with me in the Post Chaise, but they declined going till
next week, I was then advised by Some Gentlemen in
Edinburgh to go by Sea, as there was a Ship to sail next
day, I accordingly went, and when I came here I was
almost too late, I was very much obliged to you for your

Humble Servant
