Date26 August 1784
Description[Your friend Mr. Edwards delivered your letter: had there been any foundation for the report of his son’s going to India, I would have procured a letter of recommendation to the Governor General of Bengal, but as Peace is made in every part of India regiments will be returning home instead of being sent out. Mr. Garbett informed me that you would not be going to Paris this year, I conclude you have objects of more consequence in Cornwall than you could expect in France. I set off tomorrow [? for Paris], with my daughter and John.]
