Sincere thanks and gratitude for you kin-
dness and generosity in bestowing on a Bell
for our church..  It is indeed a token of your
charitable and amiable desposition.. and as

in prayer to the Lord; so often will we be
reminded of your benefience to us and our
posterity; and will cause us (if we are not
too obdurate) to Send.. up our Sighs to
Heaven for your Speritual and temporal
welfare; Nay worthy Gentlemen; if oure
interest (poor as it may be) could ever be
of any Service to you it Shall be Entire
and inviolably yours
Unacquainted as we are with either Spea-
_king or writing Much the English lang-
_uage we beg you will Excuse the contracted
way in which we give utterance to
the feelings of harts truly devoted to you
