_To the Reverend Mr. T――――._
_Edinburgh, May 31, 1757._
CANNOT you come here for one day this week? I shall leave _Edinburgh_ on _Monday_, GOD willing.――Attendance upon the assembly, and preaching, have engrossed all my time. I can scarce send you this.――_Nil mihi rescribas attamen ipse veni._――Adieu! With love more than I express, I am, my dear Mr. _T――――_,
Yours, &c.
