My Dear Sir,
I am just come in here, and to Mr. Harris's invitation. Your letter of yesterday I found with Mr. Harris. The two previous ones to which you allude where received at Croxall.
I purpose going to Mr. Dimmock on Monday, and have written to him accordingly. When there I shall learn about arrangements fully.
We had no meeting at all last night at Coventry. Mr. Pierce says that in writing to you whilst he said that the proposed day would suit, at the same time referred you to Mr. Howells, and so having heard no more of the matter, never more thought of it. Coventry is low in BS concerns but there is a prospect of things being better before long.
I do not return to London tomorrow but go to Birmingham, and stop at Mr. Gough's at Perry Hall till Monday.
Please send £20 of Travelling Expenses to the care of Mr. Dimmock, Stoke upon Trent.
I write this hastily, and half in the dark whilst the dinner party is gathering.
Yours Very Truly,
James Thomson.
