  <dc:title>To Robert Arbuthnot from Peterhead</dc:title>
  <dc:description>He has heard nothing from Dr Dun for the last fortnight. Forbes has made judicious remarks on the manuscript, of which Beattie will make use if Creech sends him the proof sheets. Printing should not be delayed much longer. Beattie asks Arbuthnot to speak to Creech. Thanks Arbuthnot for his kind comments on Elements. He will correct a passage about Bishop Burnett being a good historian. Beattie has been arranging and transcribing James Hay Beattie's papers for publication. Beattie hopes Laing's account of Peterhead will be ready for press before winter. Laing asks to include James Hay Beattie's Horatian ode on Peterhead. </dc:description>
