Letter from Christopher Smith to Matthew Flinders (FLI01) Page 18


Paƒsage between Vandiemans [sic] Land, and
the main land, of New South Wales, and
that you have been deputed to Survey it,
is there any truth in this report.
    If ever you come to Calcutta
call on Campbell & Clark, they will
receive you kindly on my account,
you will ^ find them good hospitable fellows,
and of the first respectabilities.
    I will conclude my
    dear Flinders with wishing
    you every thing you wish
    for yourself.
                  Christr Smith


When you write me, direct your letter for me
at Prince of Wales Island ^ Straits of Malacca or Amboyna
