ricardo to m^cculloch3
[Answered by 412]

My Dear Sir

Mr. Malthus had commenced his journey, to pay me his promised visit, when he heard that his sister, who was ill at Brighton, wanted him to escort her to London. It is now doubtful whether he will come at all, and, therefore, I will no longer delay sending you my papers. On casting my eye over them, I almost regret having mentioned them to you, for they are I am sure too insignificant to merit the employment of your time for so long a period, as will be requisite for you to look them over. I send them to London, with directions to forward them to you, immediately, by the mail1 ; when you have read them return them by the same conveyance to Brook Street, London.

I shall be in London about a week before the meeting of Parliament: will you be kind enough to direct that the Scotsman be sent to me in London at that time? I hope your agent will call on me for the payment of my subscription.

Ever truly Yours

David Ricardo

Gatcomb Park 13 Dec^r. 1820

[1 ]Thomas Crosse, Ricardo’s solicitor, writes to him from London, 19 Dec. 1820, that the ‘parcel for Edinburgh was forwarded by the Mail as desired.’ (MS in R.P.)
