To avoid showing favouritism and to guard against giving offence in any quarter, for such is my nature, I have faithfully endeavoured to accept the advice and obey the injunction of each and every well wisher, with one exception. I shall refer to that exception in another moment. To-night I am greatly improved, although weakened.
We have all had lyes enuf of his Majestie before: his goodness in this will, I hope, return my friend Culloden to his old consistency, and make E. Argyll appear to him as good a Presbiterian and a weel wisher to his country in no lesse a degree then Tullibardine, who plundered my land some tyme agoe, and Culloden's lately.
"Y'r Flowers are beside me," and, "I beg you not Riske y'r Life Foolishly," and "I shall be very Miserable Indeed" But then: "Y'r Old Plamate & Well Wisher"! Nay, she was inscrutable as ever. And my reply, what was that to be? How I composed it in the state of mind I was in, I have no conception to this day. I asked forgiveness for my cruelty on that memorable morning I had last seen her.
The innuendo of the thing was apparent. "Of course," she remarked, as Garrick finished reading, and before he could speak, "I know there is something back of it.

The Lord make me for ever thankful to his holy name for it! Thence home to eat a little and so to bed.

O bull amongst the Sinis, reflecting within myself, I do not, O Satyaki, see amongst all my warriors one who is a greater well wisher to us than thou art. He who is always well-affected, he who is always obedient, I think, he should be appointed to a grave commission in times of distress.
"I wished to show you a letter which I received a few minutes ago," said the inventor, still not facing Marcus, but busily filing off the rough edge of a brass wheel fresh from the mould. "There it is, on the table." Marcus caught up the letter, and read the following: NEW YORK, Wednesday Forenoon. MR. MINFORD: RESPECTED SIR: Allow a true friend and well wisher to ask a few questions.
The Lord make me for ever thankful to his holy name for it! Thence home to eat a little and so to bed. Soon as ever the clock struck one, I kissed my wife in the kitchen by the fireside, wishing her a merry new yeare, observing that I believe I was the first proper wisher of it this year, for I did it as soon as ever the clock struck one.
