Now, Tom, I have bought you Chambers in the Inns of Court. I allow you to take a Walk once or twice a Day round the Garden. If you mind your Business, you need not study to be as great a Lawyer as Cook upon Littleton. I have that that will keep you, but be fure you keep an exact Account of your Linen. Write down what you give out to your Landrefs, and what he brings Home again. Go as little as poffible to t'other End of the Town; but if you do, come Home early. I believe I was as sharp as you for your Ears, and I had my Hat fnatched off my Head coming Home late at a Stop by St. Clement's Church, and I don't know from that Day to this who took it. I do not care if you learn to Fence a little, for I would not have you be made a Fool of. Let me have an Account of every Thing every Post, I am willing to be at that Charge, and Tthink you need not spare your Pains. As for you, Daughter Molly, Don't mind one Word that is faid to you in London, for it is only for your Money.
