Inst - with your approbation I propose sailing with her - Mr. Wilson mentioned to me that he wrote you 10 days ago requesting power to draw upon you for a sum to defray my expences your answer was expected to be here 4 days ago but as it has not arrived I presume Mr. W. may draw upon you - theres no time for delay.' If he cannot get a boat from Dumfries to Liverpool he will take a coach: 'its a mere trifle from Carlisle'. He has 'got a case with bottles' and would like 'to take a few Gallons of Whisky out with me the Idea of it is ten times more than the worth Thinking that you would not refuse me such a small request I have presumed to take it & have sent it off with 6 Gall:' He concludes by asking him to write to Wilson upon receipt of the letter: 'we shall have it here on Tuesday or probably Sunday'.
