_ Letter XLVII - To Henry Colden To Henry Colden December 8. Sir:-- Enclosed is a letter, which you may, if you think proper, deliver to Mrs. Fielder. I am very ill. Don't attempt to see me again. I cannot be seen. Let the enclosed satisfy you. It is enough. Never should I have said so much, if I thought I were long for this world. Let me not have a useless enemy in you. I hope the fatal effects of my rashness have not gone further than Mrs. Talbot's family. Let the mischief be repaired as far as it can be; but do not injure me unnecessarily. I hope I am understood. Let me know what use you have made of the letter you showed me, and, I beseech you, return it to me by the bearer. M. JESSUP. _ |
