The last Letter I had the Pleasure of writing to you was the 14 Sepr and from you of the 17 May. I had the Satisfaction of wring to you also the 1st of this month. It was principally to Know for poor Frank Dashwood’s Sale about Mr. George Henry of your City who owes him a considerable Sum, whether there be any thing to be expected from him or not.

I have received from and answered a Letter from our Friend Mr. Jonn Williams, so he has plenary Indulgence for past Sins. I have exclaimed against the damnable Sin of Procrastination as he alows it to be, by asking me whether I have not in the Course of my Life found that when things were once put off they were more and more so. I agree to it, but shou’d we continue in Sin? God forbid! In short Mr. Williams has satisfyd me as well as he can in the Business I troubled him with, whereby my Friend must be content.

I am desired by our good Friend Dr. Rowley to send you one of his late publications on a Malady that has reignd here lately and the Treatment of which he thinks improper. I had dispatch’d one to Mr. Williams. How ever   makes no  , and possibly may you and he and his Friends consider and consult about republishing it pro bona Publica.

I will have you alive; but I shall be more Satisfyd by having it under your own hand. I am ever My Dear old Friend Your most affectionate
