ABSTRACT
About eleven o’clock they reached Sir William’s 1[fine] house; a servant received them, and made an 2[excuse] for his master, who was still in bed: he informed them that he had caught cold by being out so late the evening before, in the air; and had taken something warm when he went to rest, 3[which obliged him to stay longer in bed than usual]. He then offered to shew them the way to the breakfast parlour; but Mr Jones, who saw the garden thro’ the hall look very inviting, proposed a walk, and his Wife and son readily consented.
