DEAR SIR,—Your polite favour to hand, and contents noted. You are a man
of the world; I am a man of the world, and proud to deal with you as
between man and man. The little irregularity shall be no consideration,
all shall be squared, and the man wanted run in with punctuality and
despatch. Expect him at Calais on the 26th current,—Faithfully yours,
