Well, I read it, and note the contents; and this day, as if it had been a wind-bill in the literal sense of the words, I search everywhere, and lose three hours of my morning turn over all my confusion in the writing-desk break open one or two letters, lest I should have enclosed the sweet and quickly convertible document in them, send for a joiner, and disorganise my scrutoire, lest it should have fallen aside by mistake.
Elsewhere in these pages, Lord Percy has pointed out that the necessity of holding a disaffected Ireland by garrisoning the country would totally disorganise our military preparations for war such as they are.
