Doc. 19.] BISHOP SWEDBERG TO ROSENADLER . 171
[P. S.] I hear that many are running about with Hjärne’s
book in manuscript, which he wrote against my defence of my
honour. They may do so; I enjoy my food and my sleep just
as well. But should a copy fall into my hands, I will not
leave it unanswered.
Will you please look round for some printer who would
print the little catechism which is in your charge ?
My dear wife desires to be remembered to you; and I
myself, to sister Catharina Swede. When shall we hear of
her being engaged to be married ? She must not be too par
ticular, nor be too long in choosing.
I must beg you again to make my grammar acceptable,
by adding a few words to it ; should they be no more than
Burgomaster Lagerlöf received for his milch-cow. This would
profit my simple work very much. There is no necessity to
write grammars for any other language, as there are as
many as ten for each.

NINTH LETTER * OF BISHOP SWEDBERG TO
JOHAN ROSENADLER .
Well-born Secretary.
Most Honoured Brother,
I thank you very much for your welcome
letter. I thought I had sent you the little Catechism ; it
shall be forwarded at once. By the widow of the late
Åkerhjelm I sent a few days ago my Address to the
mountain -district of Fahlun, and to the clergy abroad : this
is the proper copy. You will please make an agreement
with an honest printer, who has good type, as to what I shall
have to pay per sheet. I gave here twelve dalers, during the
time of the paper currency. You will also please to inquire
about the price of paper. With respect to the Swedish
