LETTER XXVI.
TO MR. JACKSON.
“N. A. Notts. September 18, 1808.
“DEAR JACK,

“I wish you would inform me what has been done by Jekyll, at No. 40, Sloane-square concerning the pony I returned as unsound.

“I have also to request you will call on Louch at Brompton, and inquire what the devil he meant by sending such an insolent letter to me at Brighton; and at the same time tell him I by no means can comply with the charge he has made for things pretended to be damaged.

“Ambrose behaved most scandalously about the pony. You may tell Jekyll if he does not refund the money, I shall put the affair into my lawyer’s hands. Five and twenty guineas is a sound price for a pony, and by —, if it costs me five hundred pounds, I will make an example of Mr. Jekyll, and that immediately, unless the cash is returned.

“Believe me, dear Jack, &c.”
