Dear Ba.

Mr Biddulph [2] has obligingly offer’d to forward a copy of my Essay to you: I gladly seize the opportunity; tho’ as he is just going I have no time to write: I will just say that as your remarks on what you saw in MS. were of such great use to me, I hope you will continue to make them with the same freedom on what you had not seen.

Most truly yours

U Price
