High Wycombe, 25 Novr 1789

Dear Sir,

No one could make me a more acceptable Present than the
Picture you have been so good to send me & your Son. The Character
you give of him makes his Society invaluable to me whose
Lot it has been hitherto to spend my Life in a Political Hospital

His disinterestedness and originality of Character refreshes
me as much as the Country air does a London They've can

Besides Lord Wycombe loves him as much as I do,
so that his Portrait will be sure to be respected for
two generations. But I beg you will say nothing to him
of the Present which you have been so good to make me

I hope you will present my respects to M.rs Bentham
and that you will believe me with real regard

Your faithful humble serv.t
Lansdown

addressed. H. Wycombe November
Twenty fifth 1789
To Jery Bentham Esq.r
Queen's Square Place
St James's Park
F. Lansdown.
