I have been waiting since the Reciept of your kind Letter for the Return of my Son who is out on a Summer Excursion, & as the Weather has been bad, I expect he will prolong his Absence. When he returns I will endeavour but I do not believe it will be possible for me to give any extensive Account of my Responsibilities in the Country. I have abandoned the Hope of accomplishing it, as they are scattered thro' every Quarter of the State, & no regular or any Account kept.
