I hope our good friends in England will have the kindness to relieve me in the beginning of next year, or I shall totally despair of ever getting home. I grant that it is no easy task to find a proper Genl. Genl., tho' perhaps you will think that I say it who should not say it. But I hope that Mr Pitt has long had some successor in his mind, for I think he must have seen very early that Medows was too eccentric for such a station. God bless you, My Dear Grenville, you must not expect long letters for a unclear when the Thermometer is between 96 &100. I am with the greatest regard, Yrs most Sincerely

Cornwallis
