1797


Thomas Beddoes to James Watt, 18 June 1797

Dear Sir

I shall take the quietest & cleanest rooms I can find for you & your companions. Indeed there is unusual choice at present; & I hope to lodge you comfortably –

I shall be glad of the bags but think I want nothing else at present except 5 mouthpieces, which I will trouble you to bring 2 of the old & 3 of the new plated –

I am glad you come at this time as Thomas Wedgwood is just arrived – & am, wishing you a good journey yours truly

Thomas Beddoes

June 18. – Pray thank Dr Withering in my name for his letter & paper, if you see the Doctor
