on each side the river it being the hight of the 

 Hervest, & every thing so delightfull and pleasant 

 but that I suppose you are no stranger to. 



We were oblidg'd to Anchor at Wollage* on 

 account of contrary winds so the Capt. & I 

 took an Afternoon's pleasure on shore which was 

 delightfull & saw both the Town & the Country 

 around it. 



We got safe into the pool on Saturday but it 

 being a wet day, I did not go on shore that night, 

 but on Sunday morning the Capt. & I took a round 

 turn through London, we call'd upon Mr. Hodgson 

 but he was gone to Church so that we did not see 

 him till the afternoon. he was exceeding kind. 

 I've got my meet with him yet, & works in the 

 House & sleeps in a House Opposit, He was very 

 much disappointed in not receiv"g the Cuts as they 

 are much wanted you must sind immediately what's 

 done but I suppos the whole will be done by this 

 time I call'd upon Mr. Chas'. Story yesterday 

 with Mr. L & R's parcell he very kindly enquird 

 after you. 



I have not had an opportunity to call upon Mr. 

 Gregson as yet, nor I have not seen Mr. Pollard he 

 had been enquiring two or three times at Hodgson's 

 if I had come. My Comps. to Mr. & Miss Hitchen 

 I liverd their Letters but I did not see their Aunt 

 My Gomps. to Tommy Dobson Nancy and Jinney

 day afternoon as much as I can set my fase to.
