I am happy to find that you intend to make me a visit, pray let me know as near as you can the time when I am to expect you, for if it will be agreable to you I will contrive to come to London, & bring you down with me in my coach; I must go to town once within this fortnight, and if this scheme suits you & Dr Solander, I will take the time when you are ready to come here to do my business in London.

Sandwich
