With regard to G.G.'s Query as to the time occupied in the journey of
Schultz from Colchester to London, do not the circumstances sufficiently
prove that by some means _six_ must have been written for _sixteen?_
Sixteen hours would give a rate of travelling nearer the average of
those days, and was about the time occupied on the return to Colchester.
For if we allow a due time after twelve for dinner, settling accounts,
and going to the inn whence the "Staets-Kutsche" started, and for
partaking of the meal there provided, we shall very easily get to seven
or eight in the evening; _sixteen_ hours after that time would be
"towards noon" in the following day.
