This is an OCR edition with typos. Excerpt from book: APPENDIX. THE LAST LETTER OF THE REVEREND ROBERT WELBOURNE, RECTOR OF WENDELBURY IN OXFORDSHIRE. (Referred to page xliv.) Dear Jones, You make it a doubt whether I am a letter in your debt, or you in mine. This is a gentle rebuke for my silence; for so I must take it, conscious as I am of my own default; and, yet excusable, if frequent returns of pain and sickness may plead in my behalf.
