Sorgvliet, 29 September 1747.
(Slechte overtocht gehad.)
The suspicion I had is not founded, at least I have not hitherto been able to perceive anything of it. I have been mighty well received here. This to R. family for works of favi, destinet etc. I find there just as I expected the whole nation ulcerated at the ancient French party, which they consider as the cause of all our misfortunes.
