He says he finds on his list a Mr. Alderson recommended by Lady Holder nesse but that she applied before the conclusion of the war, when he thought it would rain ensigncies that he is now left with above an hundred engagements, and that the new plan of seconding two companies (i don't understand. Military Hebrew) with their ofi'icers on all the corps will increase his difficulty of performing them. This does not look as if your friend would be served soon. However, as he bids me tell him if Mr. Alderson is the person, as I Shall tell him it is within a letter, I do not despair. I write a line to Mr. Alderson to desire he will call on me 1n town on Friday and this I send to London, by a gentleman who dines with me, to Lord Harcourt, who will deliver it to you on the Birthday.
