splutters and makes faces & explodes his words to the no
small annoyance of an old nervous man in the bad sense
of the word, such as myself: and such is his ardency, that
when an honest man has begun a sentence, he will not
always let him finish it. As to his stuttering, the curious
circumstance is, — that when he has to speak for a length
of time without interruption, for example in the aforesaid
laudable Society of your humble servants much respected
Patron, the spell of the bad Enchanter is suspended for
the time and he pours forth his periods as fluently as
Counsellor Anybody. So he has assured me when scolded by
me: and on this, as on all other subjects in general, the correctness
& frankness of his assertions is, unless I am much
deceived in him not to be exceeded.

Here ends this my sermon for time being bitterly
scarce of fingers wearied out with scribbling, I have preached
it: preached I mean not as orthodoxy but as methodism &
other heterodoxy preacher.

Believe me ever with the truest respect
Dear Sir
Your faithful Servant.
