Plain Text Transcription |
From Lord Belvedere (George Rochfort) in Dublin to T.H. The recollection that he brings to mind of the many pleasant and profitable hours that he enjoyed in T.H.’s company in Bath encourages him to take the liberty of writing this letter with the hope that they may meet again one day either in Ireland or England. The bearer of this letter, Mr. Mann, is a particular friend and T.H. will have often heard Rochfort speak of him with respect and gratitude as the gentleman from whom Rochfort and his wife [Dorothea] (the daughter of John and Jane Bloomfield. She married Lord Belvidere on 20 August 1775) received their first impressions of the divine truth. T.H. will not be surprised therefore that Rochfort and his wife wish to recommend him unreservedly to T.H.’s good opinion and friendship while Mann remains in Bath. 6 March 1794 (1 sheet,2p.) |
