at least one man, if not two, but I apprehend
Mr Chambrs is engag’d on the other Side, Mr Law
I have no knowledge of, My poor friend Jack
Lee I have a great loss of, if you know any
one at all like him, pray retain him, the
Conduct of my opponents is susceptible of
of a very high Colouring, & I should be sorry
it were not set out in the manner it deserves.
I have retained Erskine, but I believe he does not go
the northern Circuit. I am much oblig’d to you
for the pains you have taken to put an end to
this very troublesome business, and am convinc’d
that yr plan would have succeeded, but for the
malevolent inveteracy, with which this whole
business has been conducted on the part of yr
Magistrates. I remain Dr Sir your oblig’d

		& obedient Humble
Red-Rice		Servt
