directions as to their future destination; enclosed I have the honor to forward a Letter from Mr. Wisset upon this subject, which I trust confirms the communication to me as above. I have therefore to request (it having occurred to me that you may probably wish them to be sent to Kew Gardens without their being landed at the Custom house and sent to Soho Square) that you will be pleased to give me directions whether they shall be sent to Soho Square or be conveyed in the same boat that brings them from the ship, immediately to Kew Gardens; upon inquiry I find the ship is expected to be at Gravesend to night. I shall therefore send down to the ship tomorrow morning.
I have the honour to be
with the highest respect
Sir
your most faithful servant\
