nionth, at the Villa d'Este, on the subject of onr duel,
hr has bound me, by my word of honour, not to fight
with von, either In this country or its neighbourhood,
and I must depart from hence. I have too good an
opinion of your principles to doubt that you will r,.
gret this unheard of indiscretion in au affair of honour,
committed during the interval of your provoking me
to light a duel, and the arrival of my se •ond to con-
cert measures accordingly.
I shall extant you at Manheim on the 6th of De-
I ember. I name that place, because it affords the fa-
cility of passing, in the space of one hour, into the
Territories of how different Sovereigns. A man of.
honour will not suffer himself to be waited for there in
rain, sad woe to him who does not repair thither.
You will find me at hianheim, on the 6th of December,
at theitotel du Mouton, and I shall alsoilosiik for you
there. To prOvent any mistake, you willthisoebil mr
address at the gates of the town. as well sentilitwetion
addreauld to you at the Post-office, to remaintlit called
for. Yon will likewise write to me, if nece.t.nry. • ,
