Transcript
Rt. Rev. and very dear Sir,
Mr. Robinson is very desirous of detaining you a few hours in Beverley, in which case he will be able to introduce you to several respectable clergymen - and if you can do it I think it would have a good effect and promote your design: and there is no doubt but you may get from and to York in the course of the day.
With great respect
And a [?] regard
Your faithful and able Serv.
John Scott
