that stands in my closet; to be sent me in the Bristol waggon
without loss of time, the following articles, viz. my rose

green mantel, my laced apron, my French commode, Macklin head and
lappets and the litel box with my jowls. Williams may bring over

terribly stuprated ever since we left huom. Pray take particular
