Till this moment, it was my firm intention to set out to-morrow
morning at seven o'clock. An unforeseen business has just arisen
which will put off my journey till Wednesday. Messieurs Scott and
Porten who are both with me desire their compliments. Thursday
night I returned from Bucks, well, much tired, but _hugely_
pleased with my Expedition.
I am, dear Madam,
Ever yours,
