Summary:
Disappointed by his father's not coming to Edinburgh but has resolved to meet him in Yorkshire instead, in company of Dr Broussonet, who knows Sir Joseph Banks and will introduce him to Mr Yeates of London, resident in Carlisle, and will visit [Robert] Batty in Westmorland. Shall only miss a few of Dr [John] Hope's lectures, which "signify little" to him.
