Revd Sir
	I thought it right to inform you there is a legacy of £81.19.6 due to my Brothers wife from the late Mr Thos Quickfall House Steward to the Right honl Lord Yarborough the legatees have recd there shares about 6 Weeks back the Money is in the hands of Mr Frith Stone Mason Great Grimsby I shd advise you to send my Brother word as soon as possible. I shd have wrote to him myself but I thought you wd have a better oppertunity of [f] getting him word than myself as you can mention it more then once in your Letters to him— I have not had a Letter from him this 18 Months I hear from New Zealand in your Monthly Register my Brother and his Colleagues calls  out for help I shd have no objection of going to him was it the will of Jehovah for the prosperity of Zion is the joy of my heart I consider it my duty to pray for the Ministers and Missioners of Jesus every night with the whole Church of God. I am in my present situation like [f] a Sparrow alone on the house top as not being favour’d with a Gospel Minister nor having a friend in the parish that I can converse comfortably with. I have oft thought of trying my fortune in London but has not yet had courage enough to venture and trust to the providence of God, I am with every good wish to the cause of truth Revd Sir
