DEAR SIR,

WE take the liberty of presenting

you this enlarged edition of the Memoirs of your brother, to whom you bore so uniform a regard, and in the events of whose life you were so warmly interested.

The familiarity of friendship with which he indulged us, and from which we derived so much pleasure and instruction, we shall always recollect as one of the happiest cir

cumstances of our lives; nor can we rank among its least advantages, that we were thus introduced to an intimacy which allows us to subscribe ourselves,.

DEAR SIR,

Your affectionate friends,

JOHN TOWILL RUTT,

. ARNOLD WAINEW RIGHT.

London, Aug. 11, 1804.
