My dearest Bishop
I return you the enclosed very interesting and amiable letter and pray God that the good Lady may yet, if it be His good pleasure, be spared a longer time to do good in her generation to His sacred cause. I have not the honour of personally knowing her, and cannot therefore I think properly wish to her to thank you for her pious attention to your sacred cause. But truly do I sympathize in your feelings of respect and gratitude towards her & hope you keep stout in health & that you will be preserved so. I greatly fear that the deep distress with which the landed interest is visited wh. occasions every real distress to me will prevent your [received] such a degree of support as I wd otherwise hope for with prevalence of sound principle among them might be hoped for. Still I trust you will have good cause to rejoice in your 2nd appeal to English Protestants. Very glad shall I be to receive you here I will only repeat when it shall seem desirable to you to move so far from London. My kind regards to your worthy herd [?] and believe me my dearest Bishop your ever affec’te friend
