To George Merryweather Date: LONDON, December 28, 1767. MY DEAR BROTHER, I thank Mr. Waldy and you for your ready and generous assistance. It seems the time is come. But John Fenwick writes from Newcastle: 'We are all here of opinion that what is done should be done at once; and we think the debt may be paid off in one year. Only let us set about it in faith. I will give 25; Mr. Davison will give 25; Jo. Morrison 25; Miss Dales 50.' Very well. This will not interfere. Some may give at once, some quarterly, some yearly. You will encourage your neighbours all you can. See letters of Dec. 15, 1767, and Jan. 9, 1768. I am, with love to Sister Merryweather, Your affectionate brother.
