There is an American of the name of Ledyard, he who was with
Captain Cook on his last voyage & wrote an account of that voyage,
who is go to St. Petersburg, from thence he was to go to Kamschatka,
to cross over thence to the northwest coast of America, & to penetrate
through the main continent to our side of it. He is a person of ingenuity
& information. Unfortunately he has too much imagination.
However, if he escapes safely, he will give us new, curious, & useful
information. I had a letter from him dated last March, when he was
about to leave St. Petersburg on his way to Kamschatka.
