Permit me, in the warmest manner, to Introduce to yr Excellency, Mr Anderson, who, together with all his Family have been my most Zealous friends upon all occasions.

A Ship having announced her Departure in two or three Days, I have sent to Dublin to muster up Some of the Last Papers, as Every hour is pregnant with Important News. Knowing those Virtuous Principles that adorn your Character, & which Justly render you the First Character of the Age, I venture to give my opinion—I was a Zealous & ostensible Supporter of the Revolution in France as settled in...
My last (per the Nymph, Vickers) forwarded you all the Important Debates on the Popery Bill; Since it went to the Lords, there has been some Debates on it, but that House would not Debate on the main Point—the Elective Franchise—for they said, that point belonged to the Commons, but the real Fact is, that the Government of this Kingdom forced the Titled Slaves to Support their Measure—though...

To the mind of a most Sincere & unalterable Friend, it must appear a Length of years Since I was favoured with a Line from the Man, whom I have & ever shall revere, as the Greatest ornament of this Century—The Freind of the real & Constitutonal rights of Man, who, in his Glorious Career of Victory, united the Soldier, the Citizen, & Legislator—who, Equaly disdaining Popular applause, when...
It is, in my mind, an Age since I had the Honor and the real pleasure of a Letter from you—on my part, nothing shall interrupt a Correspondence, that I so highly esteem, but my Dissolution, or your deeming me unworthy of it. The situation we are, & have been, in, for these three last years, in this Kingdom has partly altered my Line of public Conduct, particularily as the People had obtained...
The enclosed was left behind by the Captain of Ship, who promised to take it along with the papers & Magazines, which I had the Honor to send you last February. This goes by my Worthy Friend Mr Noble, who says he will have the Honor to deliver it personaly to you; he is a Neighbour of mine, & of a most respectable Character. God forbid that there should be a War between your Country & this; it...
It is in my mind an Age since I had the Honor of a Letter from you—I have often wrote by Different Conveyences—I hope some have arrived Safe, to shew Your Excellency that my Personal Respect & Regard can only End with my Life .
