My Dear M^r Talbot,

Having been in the Highlands for several weeks, I have just received your kind letter of the 7^th. ¹ Had I been able to go to Bath, ² it would have given me the greatest pleasure to renew the pleasant days I spent under your Roof at the time of the Bristol meeting. ³ M^r Calvert Jones ⁴ very kindly invited us to his house, but University and other business prevented me from accepting his hospitality.

We look forward with much pleasure to your return to Edin^{r 5} in Winter.

I am, Ever Most Truly y^rs
D Brewster
