My dear Lord,

In dedicating this work to your Lordship, I beg to offer you my best thanks for the unreserved confidence with which you have entrusted to my care, for selection and publication, those family manuscripts, which constitute its chief value and interest.

For this, which is but one of many acts of great kindness which I have experienced from your Lordship, believe me I shall ever feel very grateful.

I remain, my dear Lord,

Yours very truly,

author:Robert Willis Blencowe
