Página 143 - Whatever you do, I do not suspect you of pillaging or oppressing ; and shall rejoice to see you return with a body unbroken, and a mind uncorrupted. " You and I had hardly any common friends, and therefore I have few anecdotes to relate to you. Mr. Levet, who brought us into acquaintance, died suddenly at my house last year, in his seventy-eighth year, or about that age. Mrs. Williams, the blind lady, is slill with me, but much broken by a very wearisome and obstinate disease.
