sure, we should go next Day to view the
Gray-Mare’s-Tail, perhaps, the finest
Fall of Water in all Scotland, &and about seven
long ^Scots Miles from Moffat; qchwhich was agreed to.

When about to take Breakfast, B.Bishop G.Gordon took me a-
side to a Window, &and told me, he was so much pleas-
ed with my Method of Articles, that he desired, I
would take an Opportunity of going over them
once more with him; which I promised to do.

When about to be gone, I called for a
Bottle of Wine &and some Bread. My Fel-
low-Jaunters wondering what I meant,
I told them, these Implements were to
be taken along with us, as, perhaps, it
might be seasonable &and convenient to
take a Glass of Wine, when looking cold
Water in the Face; &and a Bit of Bread
would not be amiss at the same Time.
“Right, my Friend, said B.Bishop G.Gordon ‘tisit is well thought
“on. We may probably have Use for such
“Materials, before we return.”
