To Samuel Bradburn Date: LONDON, October 28, 1780. DEAR SAMMY, I am glad you are safe landed at Keighley, and trust you will there find a port of ease From the rough rage of stormy seas, There are many amiable and gracious souls in Cork and in Dublin; but there are few in the whole kingdom of Ireland to be named, either for depth of sense or of grace, with many, very many persons in Yorkshire, particularly in the West Riding. Go to Betsy Ritchie at Otley, and then point me out such a young woman as she in Ireland. I think lemonade would cure any child of the flux. Now be exact in every branch of discipline; and you will soon find what a people you are among. I am, with tender love to Betsy, dear Sammy, Your affectionate friend and brother.
