          Emory has not answered his letter , probably
did not well understand it, so that I
cannot say that present appearances look
very encouraging for him.

I am greatly pressed, having a sudden
opportunity of sending letters & small parcels
to England by John Cunningham, who
goes out, very unexpectedly on business next
Monday, & I have Academy things to
send, and Pl. [?], of which I
mailed to you lately the last sheets.

I think I will send your Potentillae (& some
of mine) out to Lehmann. Cunningham to leave
them with Boott, & Lehmann promptly to
return them to him again.

I rejoice at Hastings's position, which
appears so pleasant Sorry you did not
see Charles Lorning.

Yours ever
A.Gray
