Friday Morning. 



My dear George, — Yesterday I received your letter, 

 dated Thursday morning, which I suppose came by Mr. 

 Granville. Pray let them keep to the first directions 

 about the lit ci la polonaise. They may vary as to the 

 height, provided it will mend the proportions ; in short, 

 what I desire is, to have it of a good proportion, so that 

 it may look well ; and you will be so good as to give 

 directions accordingly. 



I sent you some tea and four fans by Lord Fitzwilliam, 

 and I shall send you two more fans by the Bunburys, 

 who set out to-morrow. Pray do not forget my vin de 

 Chambertin ; I only desire a packet of sixty bottles ; send 

 it directly to Calais. 



I would not advise you to make a very fine ws-d-m, 

 because it will not look very well unless your horses and 

 servants are very fine too. It can only come here by the 

 means of some Foreign Minister. I suppose you will be 

 able to get one cheaper than you could make it here, and 

 if you think it worth while, I imagine you may depend
