Letter 18
5 March 1772
NLS: MS 25295, f.154

Grosvenor Sq March 5 1772
My Dear Lord

I have the favour of yours of the 25^ past. I had spoken to Lord M[ansfield]. and he assured me of his inclination to serve Mr Beatie [deletion] in the manner your Lordship proposed to me, but that he has not the least

knowlege of any one of the magistrates of Edinburgh. But I am assured that he will warmly recommend Mr Beatie in the manner you mention, on all occasions. A Minister ∧of Religion∧ of his Character ought to be supported by all the friends of Religion, for the sake of Religion. It has not many such friends amongst us; perhaps fewer amongst you; certainly fewest of all amongst those of the bon ton, amongst our neighbours. It will always have a true & sober friend in your Lordship, who is so great an ornament to both Societies, Civil & Religious.

I have the honour to be, my Dear Lord,
Your Lordship's most faithfull
and affectionate humble Servant
W. Gloucester
