Transcript
Rt. Rev. and dear Sir
I trust to have the pleasure of seeing you again this morning for a very short time. I send you the two Books which your early departure prevented my shewing you last night. Will you look at Wilks P. 236 immediately? I shall be with you at ¼ past ten Deo volente. I hope Dr. Gaskin may call on you to day.
I send the passages in Chalmers last night to the company, who were much struck with them.
I am, Rt. Rev and dear Sir
With great veneration,
Your very faithful Serv.
G. W. Marriott
