2d Feby 1827

Inserendum in Memoirs of Lind & Forster

“As Lord Mansfield had sentenced Mr
Peter Ance to a year’s hard labour, for an Anti-christian
publication, and his patronage of Bishop Warburton who had the reputation
of being an atheist, was well known – I had a curiosity to know the
state of the Chief Justice’s opinions on
that subject. I accordingly desired
Lind to inform me. The answer was
indirect unbelief. I put the same question to David Martyn Martin his answer was the
same – David Martin was a man
who was admitted to familiarity
being the painter who painted his the
portrait from whence the first of
the engravings of his Lordship was
taken – and who had been sent
by him to engage an engraver for
that purpose to Paris, where engravers
work by a capital which artist scarcely cost
the employer a fourth part of what it did
in England. – The engraver he had
engaged failing him before the work
was half done, he completed it himself.
Martin Martin and I lived together in Paris about
6 weeks – Our acquaintance commenced
in the packet boat between Dover and Calais
