DEAR BROTHER, - Certainly you have heard from me; for I sent you one, and intended to send you two Journals; only George Whitfield Afterwards his Book Steward. made a blunder, and directed the second to Henry Moore. Several months since, I wrote to Dr. Coke concerning the extract he had taken from your Journal. I will write to him again. But he must bring it, not send it by post. My letters to-day cost me eighteen shillings. I promise you not to publish your picture in the Magazine before midsummer 1785. I think that is long enough to look forward. Mr. Barnard is dead. Son of the Bishop of Killaloe. I know nothing of Miss Freeman. Ireland is full as quiet as England; and our Societies were never so much alive as they are now. I cannot believe that history. If Sally is ill, why does she not go into the country Peace be with all your spirits!
