"You are threatened, dear friend, by a very imminent danger. Do not sleep to-night at home, but secure yourself at Lord Hyndford's till you hear farther from me." He found me, after dinner, at the English ambassador's, and called me aside. I read the billet, was astonished at its contents, and showed it Lord Hyndford.

Hyndford's view of the family coach, which gave no traceable information.

Of Hyndford's appurtenances for lodging we already had a glimpse, through Busching once; pointing towards solid dinner-comforts rather than arras hangings; and justifying the English genius in that respect.
