Sydney 6 Feby 1822.
Dear Sir,
From what my Brother
and Father have written by other opportunities
I cannot but indulge a hope that you
may yet have another packet (or two) for
Capt. [hume?] or myself. While you
were busied in unpacking & conveying your
baggage [indecipherable] I was unwilling to interrupt
you. but now that that unpleasant task
is as I suppose concluded, I should really
be obliged by your ascertaining whether
or no any thing intended for us has been
mislaid, or forgotten in the hurry & bustle
in which you must have been involved.
& if there be any thing, by your sending it
to me.
Yours obedtly
T. C. Harrington
