of T. H. jun. and were kindly shown through his
bleaching, dying, and printing works. We were
also shown a beautiful collection of dried speci-
mens of herbs, flowers, &c. the production of
Botany Bay. These he had received from an
ingenious young man who had been transported
into that country when but a boy on a charge
of pilfering; of which, I understood, it was ge-
nerallv believed he was innocent. His habits of
industry and care did not forsake him, although
thrown amongst such a set of companions as Botany
Bay and a Transport Ship may be supposed to
furnish; and, in a few years, he had acquired
property to a considerable amount.

5th Month, 23d.

Having concluded to take our
passage in one of the packet-boats which go be-
tween Manchester

and Warrington, T. H. kindly
accommodated us with his sociable to the water-
side. We got into the packet, and had a pleasant
sail nearly to Warrington, where we dined, being
about 18 miles. This is an easy mode of travelling
both as to expense and fatigue; and when upon a
canal like that of the Duke of Bridgewater's, and
in such a country as that through which we
sailed this day, the weather at the same time being
fine and clear, it could scarcely be otherwise than
very pleasant. In the evening we arrived at
Liverpool, and took up our quarters at our cousin
T. B.'s.
