I have received your letter of the 30th March. Since I last wrote I have
not been well. I have had a great pain in the left jaw, which almost
prevented me from eating. I am, however, better now.
I shall be glad to see you and Dr. MacOubrey as soon as you can
conveniently come. Send me a line to say when I may expect you. I have
no engagements.
Before you come call at No. 36 to enquire whether anything has been sent
there. Leverton had better be employed to make a couple of boxes or
cases for the books in the sacks. The sacks can be put on the top in the
inside. There is an old coat in one of the sacks in the pocket of which
are papers. Let it be put in with its contents just as it is. I wish to
have the long white chest and the two deal boxes also brought down. Buy
me a thick under-waistcoat like the one I am now wearing, and a lighter
one for the summer. Worsted socks are of no use--they scarcely last a
day. Cotton ones are poor things, but they are better than worsted.
Kind regards to Dr. MacOubrey.
God bless you!
[GEORGE BORROW.]
Return me this when you come.
