Hendon Middlesex
May 28. 1791

Sir

I need scarcely assure you how
flattering it is to me to find my grin/gun rack
so well approved of by so able and eminent a judge,
nor what satisfaction it would give me
to see the execution of it put into such in such

I long to take the
I shall think it long ere I take this
benefit of the instruction your politeness
has in store for me: and should be
glad to hear when you expect to be on
the return: the rather as I shall not
think I have done justice to the inventioneither
or the public or to the inventor such as it is

without giving it the benefit of your corrections and improvements,

subject more ignorant than I was did, and
having no professional reputation to maintain
you would find me just as open to correction
as the youngest of your pupls pup pupils. #
