Summary
Saying that he is looking forward to his arrival at Blithfield, but he is "sorry however that it will not be quite so soon as [he] had proposed"; noting that William Hayley is eager to see the letters from William Cowper that Bagot promised to provide for publication; asking if he can have a scribe in his family copy the first letter from Cowper (1749) and send the copy to Hayley.
